Recall that Los Refrescos record we wrote about late last year? From the same Chilean label, and one of the band member of that project (Darby Trash) comes another project worth (y)our ears. Meet Escándalo, a trio with Trash on drums, Julio Vera on guitar and Matias Valmore on bass. The band’s 5-song debut EP has no weak moments and makes an immediate impression. Sonically, while the artwork hints on Replacements’ Pleased To Meet Me LP, Escándalo appears to take their secret sauce especially from late ’70s UK punk with a touch of The Jam. Good things happening in Chile!
