Buenos Ayres Club / Perú 571 / $10
Los Alamos began playing together towards the end of 2004, less with a defining vision of what they thought a band should sound like, than with a violent need to create music as much as possible with like-minded people.
Coming from backgrounds as disparate as bluegrass, hardcore, punk, blues, and klezmer, their music reconciles the differences between these genres while at the same time creating something definitevely new.
In 2005, Los Alamos released their first studio album, the self-released "No se menciona la soga en casa del ahorcado", which led Rolling Stone South America to dub Los Alamos "the most important new band in argentina", among other critical praise.
The following year, Los alamos recorded an EP of covers and live songs called "Emboscada" that was simultaneously released in Brazil and Argentina. Following this release, Los Alamos began to tour extensively; first, throughout Argentina, and later to Uruguay and Chile, playing with bands like The Ganjas, Perrosky, and
Guiso. In August, their first album was voted one of the 13 best international debut albums by the brazilian music journal "Bizz", and soon after they performed with Patti Smith, Daft Punk, TV on the radio, The Yeah Yeah Yeahs and The Beastie Boys (Festival BUE) before playing a few small, private shows with Devendra Banhart and,
later, The Dead Brothers (Switzerland). The year ended with the recording of a soundtrack for the american film "Hide" by K.C. Bascombe, with the band contributing two previously-released songs from "No se menciona la soga" plus three new songs written in the studio that December.
2007 began with a show in Buenos Aires with The Evens, the new band of Ian Mckaye, and then a tour of Brazil with Jamaican dub legend Lee Scratch Perry and the French band The Film, where the band played to audiences of over 15,000. After a few more trips throughout South America, they enclosed themselves in the studio to record
their much awaited sophmore album, "El fino arte de la venganza". This record is the culmination of over 3 years of nonstop work, exploding with the raw power that their live performances are so acclaimed for.
Today AMOEBA will be doing the opening show.
