This is without a doubt, my favorite song from this album. They lyrics are great, and the hook is killer. Damn I want to see this band live ASAP! >:( |

I heard that the singer gets drunk on stage when they play.

I heard that the singer gets drunk on stage when they play. I've only seen them live once, when they were promoting their RONCANLOVER album back in 2004. I don't remember the lead singer being particularly schnockered out of his mind. Now Julian Casablancas from The Strokes...that's a whoooooole nother story.  |

Anybody seen the official video for this single? I'm thinking there are no more videos going to be made from MEMO REX... |

Sure enough! Official video for "paula" is out. The song is great, but I have mixed feelings about the video. Check it out:

Zoe is in the middle of a short tour across the US that includes cities like New York, San Francisco, & Chicago, as well as several Texas cities including Dallas. They stop by my hometown next Wednesday. I can't wait. This fall is turning out to be a great concert season with Aterciopelados, The Hives, Bloc Party, Aleks Syntek, & Moenia all stopping by. Too bad The Cure canceled their upcoming October concert. Damn! |

Well, I got to see Zoe in concert on Wednesday of last week, and it was a total blast. Firs of all, I was surprised that they packed the club. Granted it was a small venue, but still! Considering they are still very under the radar in the US, I was expecting another scenario like the Aterciopelados concert. It was a little annoying seeing so many pretentious hipsters, but in the end it was a lot of fun. The crowd was really into it, and Zoe played great live. Too bad their set was very short. Only 1 hour and 30 minutes including the encore. They even had to stop playing for a little more than 10 minutes b/c they crowd up front was getting too rowdy. There was no barrier separating the crowd from the stage and very little security so the cops had to be called in order to pacify the crazy emo kids! I felt like I was at a tacky, Mexican wedding where the cops always showed up.  All in all, it was a fun show. I have a friend who is flying down to Mexico City next month to be at their 10th anniversary concert at the Palazio de Los Deportes. Lucky her! |

So is this your 2nd time seeing them? Oh, deard god. Emo kids at a Zoe concert!  I got to a lot of hardcore punk shows, and boy, I am tired of all the emos. This is why I want to take a break from that and experience something more mellow. I thought Latin Alternative bands didn't attract those type of posers. |

Oh, yeah! I've seen them at La Ley, Cafe Tacvba, and Jaguares to name a few. They're so cool with their Zac Efron bangs and skinny jeans... |

...and the celebration continues! MEMO REX COMMANDER Y EL CORAZON ATOMICO DE LA VIA LACTEA just picked up an American Grammy nod for Best Latin Alternative/Rock album. Zoe is going up against Panda (another surprise), Rabanes, and some other people I don't know. Go Zoe! |

They should win this easily. I'm surprised Aterciopelados didn't get nominated. I wonder if thats because they got the Latin grammy? ???
and LOL @ Panda getting nominated again. I wonder if the album is actually good or if the academy is voting for bullshit sake because they are popular in Mexico.

The American Academy has awarded them in the past. I don't why this year was different. I guess that makes it easy for me to fully support Zoe, my favorite among the nominees. I used to like Rabanes, but they kind of fell off my radar.
I have only heard a couple of songs by Panda from their latest album. Is it really as bad as you're making it out to be? |

No, it just surprises me Panda are getting grammy nominations since there are a lot haters out there. I really liked the last two singles I heard so I should check out the album I guess, it could be good after all.
