Margaritas Podridas Unveil New Single "Pólvora"

Shoegaze/grunge/punk rockers Margaritas Podridas are back with a new track for the ages. Today, the band releases "Pólvora" which translates to "Gunpowder," and promises to be a fiery addition to the band’s discography. The single showcases their signature blend of electrifying rhythms, raw vocals, and powerful lyrics.

Margaritas Podridas has steadily gained recognition for their innovative approach and powerful stage presence. With each new release, they continue to solidify their position as one of Mexico’s most exciting and influential acts. Next up, they hit the road in the USA with Mannequin Pussy.

The quartet, fronted by Carolina Enriquez, has been steadily rising to punk rock stardom, grabbing attention left and right with their raucous anthems of rebellion and statement-making stage presence. It’s no wonder everyone from Rolling Stone to NPR are giving the band a listen. Check out the new track HERE.

Margaritas Podridas Says of the track: "During the year we have been releasing singles from what will be our upcoming album, which is very thunderous and the noisiest by now. It's probably our most favorite of all the things we've recorded yet. Pólvora is coming out with a visualizer and a cover made and designed by our friend Raul Laborin from our hometown Hermosillo, in the Sonorean desert in Mexico. He's a very talented artist that works with digital visuals and he's behind all the art in this new album. This song is the angriest and it's very fun to play live. Rafa our guitarist, composed the music, and I mainly did the lyrics. It's about people crossing the line trying to provoke you, hitting you where it hurts the most, feeling like you're going to explode like a minefield if they try to step on you one more time".

ABOUT MARGARITAS PODRIDAS

The Hermosillo, Mexico-based quartet Margaritas Podridas was born out of admiration for the underground rock landscape of the ‘90s, culling from the distortion-laden songwriting of the grunge scene, the scuzz-coated pop of shoegaze, and the noisy sojourns of that decade’s college rock’s guitar icons. Sonics aside, there’s a political streak and DIY ethic in Margaritas Podridas that recalls the confrontational idealism of their musical forebearers, evidenced in their underage scene building efforts in their hometown, their negation of the English language despite their growing international fanbase, and their penchant for giving the middle finger to sexism in both the music industry and the broader world.
