Review[]

Named after El Mariachi’s character El Moco, Los Mocosos are a latin band that apparently would rather be a band in any other genre. Not falling too far from the Ozomalti tree, the San Francisco boys turn out an array of Latin songs that are influenced by any number of genres including, but not limited to, ska, Afro-Cuban, urban hip-hop, jazz-funk, etc. The vocals jump from Spanish to English with every other song, some using both, and even get a bit political on occasion. I’m not sure how many Mocosos there actually are, since every picture of them has a different number of members, but I can imagine that they have a full tour bus. This is a decent and fun disc, but don't expect anything challenging or new.
