Julián Mayorga is back with a new album, a clattering, absurdist slice of post-cumbia psychedelia. Chak Chak Chak is a feverish mix of edgy guitars, modified rhythms, found percussion and fast-paced incantations, with influences from Tom Zé, Tom Waits and Captain Beefheart. Frenetic energy meets satirical wit.
The album's weird allegories and anti-capitalist broadsides drip with tropical mischief, dystopian noise and a love of folkloric bestiaries.
