KSPC Charts 6/6/11-6/12/11
Davila 666’s second full-length on In the Red records, Tan Bajo, hits #1 this week! After an extremely well-received debut album, these Puerto Rican snotty garage punks are with even more great lo-fi, fuzzed out tunes. The album plays like a best of the 60s teaser, borrowing elements from psychedelic rock to girl group pop and everything in between. KSPC loves it, maybe you will too! Read the rest of this week charts here!
