After a long break, The Neptunas are back! And their first impulse? Travel to Mexico City to record a new album. And why not? With Daddy-O Grande from Los Straitjackets producing how can they lose?
This new Neptunas record is by no means a document of “innocence lost.” The same primitive appeal The Neptunas displayed in the past is still 100% intact in the present. In other words, THEY STILL GOT IT.
What can be said about this album? The compositions, the performances and the production are all top-notch and Daddy-O Grande’s idea of bringing in a mariachi horn section is pure genius. Viva Las Neptunas!
