USテキサス産GYPSY PUNKバンド"PINATA PROTEST"の2013年作フルアルバム!DROPKICK MURPHYS、GOGOL BORDELLO等好きな方要チェックです!※Youtube映像は旧作収録曲になります。[フォーマットを選ぶ] [BIOGRAPHY]Piñata Protest is an accordion fronted punk rock band from San Antonio, Texas.  The band “forcefully take the raw essence of conjunto into warp-speed tempos and punky aggression,” raves the San Antonio Current, which rates them as “one of the most original forces on the local music scene.” And with their national debut album on Saustex Records, Plethora, Piñata Protest take their infectious and bracing South Texas slamdance to the rest of America and the planet at large.“When people ask me, hey, are you guys a political band? Are you guys a party band? What do you sing about? I like to say we just sing about life,” singer, accordionist, Alvaro Del Norte explains. “The songs are all a reflection of things I see and experience and believe in.” Yet at the same time, Piñata Protest offer a rush of catharsis that’s as intoxicating as a keg of Dos Equis and a barrel of tequila with a bushel of limes, and signal a powerful new and utterly distinctive musical wrinkle in music from Texas for the world.As Del Norte readily admits, for much of his life he rejected the traditional Mexican-American music he heard at home growing up in San Antonio. “I hated Tejano and conjunto and anything in Spanish. Didn’t think it was cool,” he explains.Instead he dug R&B and pop/Top 40 music until he heard in bands like The Ramones, The Clash and Black Flag a sound, attitude and messages that spoke to his feelings, experiences and soul. He learned to play bass and did time in a punk rock and an emo band. And as his high school years came to a close, Del Norte also had a change of heart regarding the music he grew up with. Born in Nuevo Laredo into a family that illegally immigrated to Texas and later became naturalized, he found such styles as Tejano, norteño and conjunto also spoke to another aspect of who he was as well as larger cultural and human issues.At Palo Alto Community College in San Antonio, he studied accordion with master player Juan Tejeda, a respected folklorist and founder of San Antonio’s Tejano Conjunto Festival. It led Del Norte to start a band that combined the punk style he loved with his Chicano musical roots that he had grown to appreciate. “I was sick and tired of bands all sounding the same. I thought long and hard: What can I do to do something different, something fun?” he explains. “All these bands were taking themselves way too seriously, and I think they forgot what music was all about: just having a good time and putting on a fun show. I thought it would be a good idea to combine the music I grew up hating and later liking and punk rock, and see how that went down my throat and regurgitated.”He started recruiting musicians at Snaps Skate Shop, a skateboard store and center in a funky old warehouse with a half-pipe inside that was a San Antonio punk scene gathering spot. It’s also where the first version of Piñata Protest debuted, although their inaugural show was almost derailed when police raided the joint. Undaunted, the band set up outside and played unplugged.A self-released 10-track EP helped spread the word. They also so impressed Hickoids singer Jeff Smith that he signed Piñata Protest to his Saustex label, and hails them as “the most pure punk band I've seen in 15 years.” They recorded Plethora to spread the band’s supercharged squeezebox Chicano punk far and wide with the lineup of drummer J.J. Martinez, bassist Marcus Cazares and guitarist Matt Cazares now solidified behind Del Norte.They’ve since risen from the local rock and punk clubs to gigs with bands like Reverend Horton Heat, Girl in a Coma, Brujeria, The Hickoids and Los Skarnales and playing such festivals as Chicago's Latino Fest, the American Sabor Music Festival and South By Southwest.The San Antonio Current raves, “Piñata Protest’s Álvaro Del Norte is doing for the accordion what the Dropkick Murphys do for the bagpipes, playing what’s often considered an embarrassing grandpa-music relic with youthful angst and energy, expanding the punk-rock template beyond London and NYC.”Piñata Protest heads back into the studio this summer to record with Grammy nominated producer Frenchie Smith (The Toadies, And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead).
