Album Notes & Community Reviews

Led by the fiercely charismatic Manu Chao, Mano Negra unleashed a wildly multicultural, genre-smashing celebration on 'Puta's Fever'. The French outfit effortlessly bounds between ska, punk rock, salsa, and Arabic music, delivering a hyperactive, politically conscious party album sung in multiple languages. Its immense success in Europe paved the way for the massive mestizo and Latin alternative rock movements.
