Los Dregtones

The singular cassette demo

 So here's a band I found whilst digging through Cedric Bixler-Zavala's back catalog. I think it was the first band he was in, they make an odd style of Psychedelic Ska Punk (with scatting and CBZ's signature manic crypticisms).

The band were around in ~1994 in El Paso, Texas and consisted of:

Cedric Bixler-Zavala (vocals, drums)
Ralph Jasso (guitar)

Jimmy Hernandez (bass)

Julio Venegas (bass)

Luis Prieto (percussion)

Brooks Miller (trumpet)

Adam Young (drums)

Andrew McCoi (drums)

In 1994 they recorded a demo, included personnel were:

Cedric Bixler-Zavala [Cedric Bixler] (vocals)
Ralph Jasso (guitar)

Jimmy Hernandez (bass)

Adam Young (drums)

Julio Venegas (artwork)

Jimmy Hernandez died of cancer in 1994, and Julio Venegas of suicide in 1996. 

Cedric Bixler-Zavala would later go on to be in At The Drive-In (my beloved) and The Mars Volta (with whom he recorded an album inspired by Venegas' life entitled Deloused in The Comatorium)

Since there are no properly id3 tagged versions of their demo 5 Song Alibi floating around on the internet, I have taken it upon myself to provide them, ripping them from youtube and tagging them myself. You can download it here

Oh I also found a live video (courtesy of the Marble Shrine)
