  Bam Bam - Hi-Q

A long term relationship and several aborted projects (Mou just broke up his former band Ruidos en el Techo, Meme and Leo came from the late Ya no lloverá en septiembre) were the beginning of this one year old thing called Bam Bam. This guys could be the most simple rock band or the most complex project in Nene Records. Not so associated with the punk rock garage feeling of the label and more orientated to the acid rock, Bam Bam goes from the pop to the punk, the blues to the kraut and many other influences that you can smell in Monterrey´s underground always mixed with a primitive touch given by Luxor’s frenetic percussion work.
The first online single of Bam Bam “Nunca atacas con la ropa puesta” was the first step of Nene Records to become a recognized net label in Mexico.
Many gigs in the north of Mexico, so different between them, opening shows to groups like Junior Boys, Los Dynamite, XBXRX and headlining the most bizarre festival of Mexican underground the “NENE FEST” only to confirm the dysfunction between this band and the so called “indie” local scene.
Now Bam Bam are locked up in Nene Record’s studio eating peyote and producing their first LP that had to be released on January 2008 via Nene Records netlabel.
