BIOGRAPHY
Art should be polarizing. It should provoke some sensibilities and excite others. It shouldn’t just toe the line and be safe. Where’s the fun in that?

Besides, it’s the artists that shake things up who we really care about, from Jim Morrison and Axl Rose to Kanye West and Trent Reznor.

That brings us to The Blancos.

As the story goes, the duo got their name from a homie of theirs during the months spent recording at a Brownsville studio in Brooklyn. They rolled up as literally, “The Blancos,” but could hang nonetheless. They’re the distillation of the last bit of genuine energy left in milquetoast indie and so-called alternative scene.
