 Chelsea on fire   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
The band played such a gig last spring, and they're proud to report that they passed the acid test.
I heard a band who specialize in cathartic outbursts but put some thought and some chops into it; there were enough song structures and dubwise rhythms to set you up for the moments of screaming and clatter.
Chelsea on Fire's self-released homonymous album (whose release was celebrated with a gig at T.T. the Bear's Place this week) captures some of what I heard, though it cries out for better production (the guitar sound needs to be thicker, and more of Packard's vocal subtleties need capturing).

When asked how the band got its name "Peligro," Daniel said when they started playing, they did not play salsa but music that was more consistent with being a rock band rather than a Latin band.

According to Peter in interviews, his first band had been formed in 1958, and was called The Stars, but as a youngster the importance of this band can probably be limited to it being his first band, and the level of seriousness is probably the opposite of what one could really consider being a band.
Yet, the band's sound was in synch with the musical movements of the late 1960's and the band were miraculously able to swing a two record deal with Decca Records in 1969.
