Listen to a smattering of tunes by Mexican indie rock band La Gusana Ciega [The Blind Worm]. The band originally sprung up in Mexico City’s underground rock scene in the late eighties, establishing itself in the nineties as one of Mexico’s most important alternative rock groups. To date, the group has recorded eleven albums, received a Latin Grammy nomination, and graced important national and international stages.

We skip backstage once again to get some final thoughts from La Gusana Ciega, learning a bit more about their career and personnel changes. Like many of Mexico’s popular bands today, they got their start at a Mexico City club called Cocotitlán, which is also the name of a municipality well known for its corn festival.
