The debut album from raucous live favourites Los Bitchos, produced by Franz Ferdinand's Alex Kapranos, evokes many things: panthers prowling through a desert, cowgirls swaggering into a saloon and kicking up dust, or having the fiesta of your lives under a giant piñata with all your friends. Los Bitchos’ hallucinatory surf-exotica is as evocative as it is playful: the London-based pan-continental group could well be your new favourite party band with their instrumental voyages that are the soundtrack to setting alight a row of flaming sambucas and losing yourself to the night. They’ve got a bun-tight knack for a groove – and they’ve got the best fringes in rock’n’roll, too.
