Tito & Tarantula

I watched Desperado a couple of times this past week and one of the highlights for me was the song Strange Face of Love by Tito & Tarantula (the singer actually acts in the film and they are the vampire band in From Dusk Till Dawn). Lyrically and musically it embodies perfectly what I love about music - reminds me so much of Grunge era music and particularly Alice in Chains - just incredible rock 'n roll, spliced with latin sensibilities and romanticism.
So I'm wanting to get a couple of their albums.

Was wondering if anyone has any of their music and wants to recomend one of their albums in particular.

Tito y Tarantula do indeed rock.

"After Dark" is probably one of my favorite tunes from them. It's on the From Dusk 'til Dawn soundtrack. I highly recommend it.

Man, I still remember when he was with the Impalas (unless he just changed their names XD). They were the house band on a short-lived comedy show called "Culture Clash".

coolness. I've noticed some of their stuff is pretty sought after/rare - maybe in certain formats. But its been years since something's pulled on my heart strings the way this music did (though Desperado is admitedly an old film). I feel like such a dinosaur - nothing affects me musically the way 10 year old music + does
