LOS NATAS
EL HOMBRE MONTANA (SMALL STONE)
I don't know what time it is in Argentina right now but for Los Natas it must be sometime in the mid 1970's because the god's of Buenos Aries burnout rock are back doing what they do best and that means fuzzed out psychedelic rock jams that rivals the best work Black Sabbath ever did.
After five years of dabbling in the more experimental side of the psyche rock genre the boys are back with the proper follow-up to 2001's "Corsario Negro." No more three tracks clocking in at 65 minutes, "el hombre montaña," is eleven full blow, fully developed jams that lean heavy on the rawk, push the throttle to the limit, and teach us dumb ass American's a thing or two about what music is supposed to be...
even if they can't read a calander. When grunge ruled supreme, Los Natas were just finding their way out of the third world and into the underground.
They paid their dues like any other band, but paid them ten fold for being from South America.
Five proper albums (several released on Man's Ruin), three 10" singles, a handful of E.P's and countless contributions to compilations scattered across three continents have built these Latin son's a reputaion that spawns the globe and they're not modest about any of this.
They have received critical acclaim in Rolling Stone (3+ stars), Metal Hammer, Kerrang!, Alternative Press, and have shared the stage with Alabama Thunderpussy, Queens of The Stone Age, Samiam.
"El hombre montaña," picks up where "Corsario Negro" left off. Once again produced by heavy hitter Billy Anderson (Melvins, Neurosis, Acid King, Fantomas, High On Fire) at the luxureous Abasto Studios and recorded on vintage equipment straight to 2" tape, Sergio and the boys have created an instant classic of a new genre that can only be described as "LATIN HEAVY PSYCH."
