Back when groups like U2 and Echo &#038; The Bunnymen were still underground cult bands and goth hadn&#8217;t been discovered on America&#8217;s shores, Herrera&#8217;s early eighties &#8220;post-punk expressionist rock&#8221; band were developing a strong following from their Miami, Florida homebase.<br \/>\n<BR><br \/>\n&#8220;They seem influenced by British drone-rock, but they don&#8217;t have that self-pity thing. There&#8217;s a feeling of urgency and pleading, but with an edge of confidence in the singer&#8217;s voice. No hit-type tunes here, more like a mood, or a descriptive travels-in-a-strange-land soundtrack.&#8221; &#8211; OP MAGAZINE, 1984<br \/>\n<BR><\/p>\n<h2>&#8220;El Sue\u00f1o de la raz\u00f3n, produce monstruos&#8221; <\/h2>\n<p><BR><br \/>\nRemastered in 2011. Sam wrote: &#8220;These three tracks were continuously spinning on my turntable in the mid-80s. I loved Oscar&#8217;s band. When I heard that DJ Matthew Griffin in Boston was spinning these tracks I thought it would be great to give them a modern remastering. I boosted the bass and compressed them to bring it all together and make them more punchy. These are great songs and I&#8217;m excited to have people hear them again, 28 years later!&#8221; (Now 32 years later).<br \/>\n<BR><\/p>\n<h3>Watch the video on the &#8216;media&#8217; tab above<\/h3>\n<p><BR><br \/>\nOscar Herrera &#8211; Lead vocals and acoustic guitar<br \/>\nKevin Janosky &#8211; Guitars, vocals and piano.
