Summer 1979. I'd finished my first year at college. There is no internet, but a frenzy has been whipping up among weird kids for this movie for months.

One of the chief sources of information for nerds was Omni Magazine (In the US and UK). I had subscribed to it for its entire lifetime.

There was a long feature on H.R. Giger in the November 1978 and his eerie art with creatures that combined biology and machine-like elements. It put me over the edge.

First we have Alejandra Guzmán AKA La Reina de Corazones with her take on “La Plaga” AKA “Good Golly Miss Molly” (https://youtu.be/I80g5eo71Yo?si=lLqafTuEpa6T2q8t). Some of y’all will remember her father Enrique Guzmán y Los Teen Tops and their version of the song (https://youtu.be/JfNhew2Wu-U?si=qOdeX_86WDQH_P0s) from our first Cinco de Mayo party playlist (bit.ly/3w5mAR7)

Next we have the CDMX-based early new wave/post-punk band Size with “GoGo Girl”. They were only together for a few short years but their impact on Mexican music is pretty undeniable

There’s a really good in depth documentary about Size from 2018 titled “Nadie Puede Vivir con un Monstruo” but it’s tricky to find☹️

The Mars Volta has a revolving door policy RE: membership but at its core is Mexican-American Cedric Bixler-Zavala and Puerto Rican-American Omar Rodríguez-López. Sit back and enjoy the journey (https://youtu.be/Hd8Wq7xpSc4?si=C4jmtgZiDhqDerbp)

Durango, Mexico’s Los Dug Dugs were considered one of the wildest Mexican rock bands of the early 1970s and were one of the first Mexican rock bands to write their own songs in english. Times, sounds and lineups change but some iteration of Los Dug Dugs are still at today!

? And The Mysterians- Michigan based kids of migrant workers who hit it big young and were the first all Latinx rock band to have an original number one song on the charts (“96 Tears”)

I know people think of Tejano Sam the Sham and The Pharaohs as a novelty/joke band but they have some legit rocking song like this (https://youtu.be/atBVm7IYHas?si=MfWXANkDtSFxSfr7)

It’s illegal to have a playlist without music by la Reina Selena Quintanilla-Pérez and keeping with the family theme many members of her backing band were members of her family.
