SEÑOR FLAVIO OF LEGENDARY LATIN ROCKERS LOS FABULOSOS CADILLACS RECEIVES EARLY RAVE REVIEWS FOR 'SUPERSAUND 2012'
Argentina's Grammy-Winning Los Fabulosos Cadillacs Are A Multiple Platinum-Selling International Phenomenon.
New Señor Flavio Album, Out March 4th, Showcases Garage Rock, Psychobilly And Punk As Well As The Reggae and Ska That Made Señor Flavio And The Cadillacs Super-Stars.
"Contrary to its title, this well-crafted solo album by Los Fabulosos Cadillacs' co-founder isn't quite a projection into the future, but more of a throwback to the ska/rock that the group merged so beautifully with Latin sounds in its day."
- BILLBOARD
"There have been so many failed attempts by so-called Latin-alternative bands to strive for this kind of kitschy, laid-back fun that when Flavio achieves it so flawlessly you wonder where he'as been all these years."
- NY NEWSDAY
'Supersaund 2012', the new project from Señor Flavio, bassist, songwriter and founding member of legendary Argentine rock band Los Fabulosos Cadillacs, is already receiving rave reviews in advance of its March 4th release. The album is sure to please longtime fans of the Grammy-winning band as Flavio adds garage rock and punk to the reggae and ska that made Los Fabulosos Cadillacs global stars.
"The different styles on the album are a result of an eclectic mix of influences inspired by listening to music and just living life," Flavio says. "Being Latin American and being mestizo, fusion is part of our continent, our folklore and our pride."
Señor Flavio is widely recognized as a founding father of the Latin alternative movement. Since the release of the last Los Fabulosos Cadillacs album, he has been involved in a variety of musical projects including the production of albums for rock acts like Panteon Rococó and Rabanes.
"I learned about music through the University of The Clash," he says. "They taught me to listen to everything and to keep an open-mind, somehow achieving a state of elegance and rawness at the same time. Who knows how many things Papa Strummer and his crazy crew taught me. Simply put - they taught me how to love rock."
Los Fabulosos Cadillacs are an internationally-renowned and versatile group that defined the Rock en Español genre and have sold millions of albums worldwide. Songs like "Matador", "V Centenario", "Mal Bicho" y "Vos Sabés" were anthems for a generation and inspired thousands of youth and musicians across the United States, Latin America and Europe. Global hit "Matador" was featured in the platinum-selling soundtrack to the film Grosse Point Blank .
