Don Caballero - our cabellero CD5/7"

  • D: city slang. efa 04922-03 / 4 tracks / 1993
  • feat. Che Fitzgerald (ex-Half Life) on drums. 7” has the first two tracks only.
  • Until Don Caballero came along, instrumental bands (or even instrumental songs) were the big big exception in the punk/hardcore/postcore scene; and if a band tried it it usually turned out to be some unlistenable jam session crap. DC prove that you don’t need vocals to play intense, powerful, kickass music. They’re tight as hell and yet very sophisticated, complex and intelligent, like the bastard son of Big Black and Nomeansno. A 5” nuclear power plant. [9]
  • Instrumental-Bands sind in dieser Szene eher die Ausnahme, und wenn eine Band das Wagnis unternimmt, endet das meist in entsetzlichen Jam-Sessions oder Free-Jazz-Getöse. Don Caballero umschiffen diese Klippen souveränst und legen mit ihrem Debut ein Werk vor, das auch ohne viele Worte sehr aus­drucksstark ist. Mittelschnelle, aber extrem kraftvolle Musik, kompakter Gitar­rensound und geniale Drum-Arbeit von Damon Che Fitzgerald. Atomkraftwerk im 5”-Format.
  • Tracks: our caballero / my ten year old lady is giving it away / unresolved karma / first hits
