Almost 25 years into their career, Spanish rock ‘n’ roll band Los Chicos keep the party going with the release of their 8th full-length album, Never Is Too Much. Rafa Suñén (vocals), Antonio Urchaga (guitar), Gerardo Urchaga (guitar), Guillermo Casanova (bass) and Ral García (drums) bring 12 new original songs to the dance floor of a sweaty pub, drenched in energy and joy. This is all about unstoppable riffs at a high tempo, with gritty vocals spitting out lyrics about friendship, coming of age, treason and hope, but also relatable references to a musician’s life’s road trip. “Holding a guitar to defeat the past” they sing in Exiled Between The Cracks, and it works. However: “Time flies by like a fight // I’m ready to call it a night” we hear in the title song—disturbing words, but no matter what happens, this music is forever.

Never Is Too Much, produced by Mike Mariconda, is out now digitally and on vinyl LP through Cheersquad Records & Tapes.
