Los Angeles, CA hardcore band Desmadre have made the jump to Flatspot Records. Ringing in this new arrangement is the below music video for their song “West Coast Story“, which features Alpha & Omega. Estevan Oriol (Cypress Hill, Blink-182) directed the visuals for this new clip.
Regarding their signing, the band’s vocalist Carlos Moreno stated:
“Since I was a kid I dreamt about telling stories from my perspective, now I’ve been given the chance to do it at a global scale. I’ve been given the tools to pass down these stories to my kids and future generations.”
The group’s guitarist Chucky Martinez added:
“It’s always been a dream of mine to start a band and get signed to a sick label. Now that dream is fulfilled thanks to Flatspot Records.”
As for the opportunity of working wot Oriol, Moreno added:
“‘West Coast Story‘ is Desmadre, if you’re from here then you know. If you aren’t from here, you’re about to find out what we’re all about, bienvenidos al desmadre. Having the opportunity to work with a legend like Estevan has been a life changing experience, the same dude whose photography and art shaped the west coast is helping shape the Desmadre we are creating.
It is such a crazy and humbling experience. Being a part of his portfolio, amongst some of the greatest artist, some of which I grew up listening to and admiring. It’s still mind blowing to me. I am beyond grateful for the experience and the knowledge he has provided us with.”
