Album lore

Lleva, issued in May 2026 on the band’s eponymous imprint, is a singular release by Los Calzones, a group operating within the realms of Mexican ska and ska punk. The album is a lone composition, a concise yet spirited distillation of murga rhythms and Latin rock inflections, all filtered through the familiar offbeat pulse of ska. Though sparse in quantity, the track carries the weight of the band’s regional lineage, blending brass and rhythm with an urban edge that speaks to its cultural roots.The record’s modest footprint—just one track—belies a commitment to the interplay of styles that animate contemporary Mexican ska scenes. The murga elements, in particular, lend a carnival air that sets Lleva apart from more conventional punk or ska outings. With just over 150 scrobbles on Last.fm, this artifact remains a quiet signal, awaiting rediscovery by crate-diggers keen on the crosscurrents of Latin American urban music.
