The boys from Manic Hispanic are back, still dodging the border patrol, crusing around in lowriders, and running from a liorona. For those not in the know MH is a Hispanic version of Weird Al that trashes classic punk rather than the top 40. The songs are still funny dealing mostly with Hispanic street culture and prove once again that stereotypes are funny.

Awesome band, awesome album. Way better when you actually GET the jokes. The band can play and imitate voices well, and all three albums are just FUN albums. fellas great cd, these guys have a great sense of humour, put on a better live show than any simple plan new found glory show any day. Should I argue with someone that goes to dashboard confessional shows? Because it seems pretty obvious to me that he hates himself enough already. god it must suck to live in boston. Oh and by the way twat, if by asking "are ethnicities like unicorns in Boston" you are implying that we dont have people of "ethnicity" you are an idiot. Perhaps the word you were looking for was minoity.. yea thats probably it.-BostonMusicGuy Just so Mr. Twat knows, I dont own this cd. I wont buy this cd. I like the song "I want to be a cholo" off of the Warped comp but thats the only one ive ever heard by them. I even said that that was the only one I had ever heard by them in my comment. Perhaps he just wants to start a fight of some sort because he thinks it will make him cool. Im probably just adding to the fight by replying but whatever... im pretty bored waiting to go out. Anyway, yea we have races in Boston. I live outside of a city called Lawrence MA, and that city is 75% (at least) hispanic (Puerto Rican and Dominican). So yea there goes that argument. All I was saying was it was a hilarious cover art and title. Perhaps I just understand the humor and you dont. fucking twat.-BostonMusicGuy i just got the cd. funny jokes, great covers and an overall good band. give them a try plus this record is cheap (i got mine for $7). Sorry twat, but the Tomahawk album sucks ass, big time. haha...the cover art and title are hilarious, and so are the songs. sure this isn't rock for the ages, or even a couple hours...but if you know any of the songs or bands they parody its real funny. check it out "Yo holmes! You want to be a cholo essay? Joo want to ride in my 69 cheby? Isn't Boston called bean town? Wouldn't that make you a beaner? You’re halfway there. You are fucking stupid." I heard of this band but never the tunes or what its about, but that album cover and name are awesome and the song titles sound classic too. Im gonna have to check it out Yo holmes! You want to be a cholo essay? Joo want to ride in my 69 cheby? Isn't Boston called bean town? Wouldn't that make you a beaner? You’re halfway there. You are fucking stupid. Like Paula Abdul once said, "straight up” you are an idiot. I listen to rap music and then I wish I was black. Not really, because I’m not that lame. Are ethnicities in Boston like unicorns? Are they this mythical creature you hear about but never see? Do you see what kind of retarded statement that was? Of course not you bought this cd. Anyway you're stupid for listening to this shit. Go get a burrito and then the new tomahawk cd, and then go fuck yourself. The Manges ripped off the 'Milo goes to college' cover a few years back. I guess they weren't to know though. I want to be a cholo! Thats the only song I have heard of this band, off last years Warped Comp, but I might actually look further into them. They sound like a pretty funny band... and that cover.... HA!-BostonMusicGuy The TSOL cover is fucking awesome. I really dig this album. Its not meant to be serious, just fun with punkrock. Obviously some people can't mix fun with their music. What's the TSOL cover like? "prove once again that stereotypes are funny." That's a fucking funny cover. After listening to that one song on the BYO comp, I kind of wanted to stay away from this band, but I actually want to give it a listen now. "Best album cover ever, are you joking me The Descendents had almost the exact album cover years ago. And by the way Manic Hispanic has SARS." "Best album cover ever, are you joking me The Descendents had almost the exact album cover years ago. " Lalo got this yesterday, I think it's pretty good, from what I heard. It's not as good as the first one...but that would be REALLY hard to top, I think. However, this does get the best cover art award. For all idiots....think Me First And The Gimme Gimme except covering older punk songs and you get something "Similar" to this. Ok, there. Good stuff, but still only jokey covers, therefore only worth purchase if you're a huge fan of the band. i dont think liking the dickies or damned would have made me like this record anymore than i did this is a great record, but i can see how like 90% of the assholes that go on this page can miss the entire idea. how does not listening to dickies and the damned lead to being a simple plan fan sounds like the logic of a crackhead "Best album cover ever, are you joking me The Descendents had almost the exact album cover years ago. And by the way Manic Hispanic has SARS. Haha, that guy said Moldy listens to Simple Plan... If you aren't a fan of The Dickies or The Damned, why the fuck are you reviewing this album. Maybe you shouldn't ve given it to a reviewer who listens to more than just A Simple Plan. Douche! Best album cover ever, are you joking me The Descendents had almost the exact album cover years ago. And by the way Manic Hispanic has SARS. Funny band, I probably wouldn't buy the CD though. I agree that it doesn't leave an impression but I do like the song titles. "The I.N.S. Took My Novia Away"...I know that happens once in a while. I have nothing to say, except FIRST COMMENT!!! |
