dubq 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2004 Molotov! This band is South American, and are amazing. Really remeniscent of Rage Against the Machine crossed with Pop Will Eat Itself... Mano Negro is pretty good too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Corey_Lazarus 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2004 Uhhhh...Puya is a Puerto Rican nu-metal band that had a minor radio hit with "Oasis" a few years back. Not too bad, as the breakdowns have all these Spanish instruments and stuff. The music's still pretty generic nu-metal for mid-90's (thus better than the nu-metal we've been subjected to lately, like Trapt and such), but they're not TOO bad.

Mano Negro is pretty good too. Uhm... I dunno but... Last time I checked MEXICO was part of North America... Canada-USA-Mexico. I hate Molotov, but I do have to say that it is a Mexican band. Now about Mano Negra... i think they are from South america, not sure, but probably from Argentina. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pochorenella 0 Report post Posted January 20, 2004 Well, it pretty much depends on what kind of music you like, there are a lot of choices. Here we go with some of mine (stuff that I do listen to): Rock/Hard Rock: You can't go wrong with stuff like Mana, Caifanes, some Jaguares stuff, Los Rodriguez/Andres Calamaro (from Argentina) and some Fabulosos Cadillacs stuff. Mano Negra is pretty good, too, but nowadays Manu Chau (the band's leader) is mostly doing solo stuff. He's french BTW, but sings in spanish for whatever reason. Miguel Mateos is also a great solo rock act from Argentina. As far as Hard Rock goes, I was never much into Sepultura, but there's a band from Argentina called Rata Blanca, who're pretty good, in a Rainbow/Deep Purple vein. Heroes del Silencio, and Angeles del Infierno, both from Spain. As for more poppish kinda stuff, I hate Ricky Martin and Enrique Iglesias with a passion. BUt you can't go wrong with people like Eros Ramazzotti (italian guy who also sings in spanish) or Ricardo Montaner from Venezuela, he sings mostly romantic tunes. And of course, a lot of Shakira's pre-english stuff is pretty good. And as much as I love Thalia, the music she does is horrible. Hope this helped. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
