Beloved Los Angeles trailblazers Mariachi El Bronx recently announced the February 13 release of their new album, Mariachi El Bronx IV (ATO).\u00a0 The alter ego of punk rock heroes The Bronx, the band also dropped the LP\u2019s lead single \u201cForgive or Forget\u201d and noted the track is about someone \u201cwho\u2019s completely disheveled and a little washed out, looking back on their life in a way that\u2019s kind of hazy.\u00a0 There\u2019s a little bit of hope there, but it\u2019s pretty dark.\u201d\u00a0Today, the band shares the official video for the track, directed by Dean Williams, and the song features Ray Suen on violin (Childish Gambino, Lorde).<\/p>\n

After a 10-year hiatus, Mariachi El Bronx IV finds the band continuing to embody the same ethos that sparked their creation \u2013 pushing creative boundaries while honoring the rich Hispanic music and culture that have always surrounded them in Los Angeles. Throughout the LP\u2019s 12 tracks, the band documents the stories of gamblers, former playboys, warriors, lovers \u2013 characters that became vessels for the specific pressures of being alive right now.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Clashing emotions of profound loss and overwhelming love shaped the album\u2019s themes. The songwriting \u201cstarted as a battle between love and death but became a way to process all the chaos of the world,\u201d says lead vocalist Matt Caughthran.<\/p>\n

Known for their electrifying performances and signature charro suits, Mariachi El Bronx is bringing its powerful eight-piece sound back on the road.\u00a0 After a sold-out show earlier this month at LA\u2019s infamous La Cita, the band next plays shows in Santa Ana and San Diego (both are sold out), before celebrating the album release in Tijuana, Mexico, on February 14 (low ticket warning). Each show, presented by Liquid Death, is $4 in celebration of Mariachi El Bronx 4. They share, \u201cThese four shows represent a sacred right of passage for every Southern Californian. And Tijuana is raw, beautiful, dangerous, and inspiring. I couldn\u2019t think of a more perfect place to celebrate the new album.\u201d Tickets are on sale now here, and all dates are listed below.<\/p>\n
