Let's say you are in a record store or online, and you're looking for an album to take a chance on buying. Or, say you're going out tonight, and you're looking at the names of the local bands who will be onstage tonight.

My questions are these: without having ever heard this band, or knowing anything at all about them other than their name...

...what would be your first thoughts about a band named Mariachi Static? Would you be willing to take a blind chance on them? What would you think they might sound like?

Thanks!

I initially read it as Mariachi Satanic so I might be biased, but I think of a really noisy punk band.

Heh...I just got an image of Rolling Stones songs done mariachi style. The album could be called Her Satanic Mariachi Request.

Interesting. I never saw that in the name. It's from a song lyric, by the way.

Uh...duh...

Sounds like ambient or post rock with fiery scratchy little bursts that careen all over the place. Whatever that means.

Something like this... minus the "fiery."

There's at least a tint of racism in this statement.

I don't think there is.

Anyway, I like the name. It's pretty cool.
