8 Kalacas Fronteras (Orange/Black Vinyl)

Founded in 2003 in Orange County, that particularly fertile ground of musical extremes that has also allowed SOCIAL DISTORTION or AVENGED SEVENFOLD to flourish, 8 KALACAS are the harbingers of a new era. Having established their thoroughly distinctive blend of metallic hardcore, ska and traditional Mexican elements in California and the rest of the formerly United States, the seven-member
brotherhood is now more than ready to conquer the rest of the world as well.

"Fronteras", their third album and the first for their new label Atomic Fire Records, is like a curveball for the rest of the international metal/hardcore scene: an album so fierce and unique that you just can't help but succumb to the thundering grooves, vicious riffs and infectious trumpet/trombone madness. It's a sound like there's no tomorrow.

8 KALACAS combine their Latin roots and Californian heritage in a way that is as amazing as it is brilliant. This is something new and equally exciting in the world of hard music.
