- Oh, finally! I’ve been getting real antsy while waiting to share this tape. I’ve been making sure to be timely with posting the other requests so I can get to this one as soon as possible. It’s only been sitting in my to-post list for about a week now, and I still feel that it’s a week longer than I should’ve waited.
I usually have got some sort of story or tirade to go along with these write-ups, to sorta, I dunno, pad the information with other things that’re a bit more fun to read. It’s a trend that people are catching onto, with people telling me that they’d not only love for me to share their bands on my channel, but to also “ramble” about it; that’s a perfect way to put it, actually, just rambling. I’m afraid that I don’t got any sort of story with Olvido, because my interactions with the band was about as wholesome as it can get: band comes to me with their material, I listen to said material, I agree to post it on my channel, and I get to walk away from the exchange with a tape for my “charitable deeds”. And you know what? I think that’s great. As much as I love complaining and having things to rant about, having next-to-nothing be associated with Olvido--barring their wonderful music--actually makes me appreciate it more. Me talking to bands only makes me realize how damn dorky every single one of you are, so to keep that sort of curtain up allows me to respect people as artists a little easier. Setting up a Facebook account for contact was probably one of my worst decisions: everyone’s tastes in memes totally suck.
Looks like I still managed to find something to complain about. Huh. Funny how that turned out. Anyways, this is Olvido. They’re a pop-punk group from Mexico City, which makes them the very first Mexican group to see their way up on the Jimmy. Congratulations, here’s your certificate to represent such a remarkable feat: i.imgur.com/7bN...
I wouldn’t get that piece of paper too close to your face though. It’s, uh, been through some shit, I’ve kinda been handing it out to every band that strolls through here. Some of these punk-people are a little rank, y’know? Those bleached t-shirts ain’t just for show, they legitimately need some of that heavy-duty bleach stuff to wash out the stains and stench from their clothes. Kinda concerning how nasty some of these guys are. Um, on second thought, don’t get it near your body-actually, don’t even touch it. Just leave it right where it is. That’ll do. Yeah. Sorry. But hey, congrats on being Mexico’s first up on the Jimmy!
But like I was saying, Olvido is a pop-punk group from Mexico City. They’re a three-piece, and unfortunately, my knowledge on the group stops right about there. At most, I can assume that the band’s been active since 2015, and that this demo released sometime last month. Other than that, I’ve got zilch. When I prodded the member who contacted me for information, he didn’t have anything to say about his band, so I’m afraid that the biography’s gotta stop right about there.
My lack of a personal introduction and factual information on the group doesn’t impede my ability to absolutely adore this tape. When I first got the email from the group, I paid heed to the band's name in the subject line: Olvido. I paid enough attention during the three years of Spanish that I took in high school to know that "Olvido" translates to "Oblivion" in English. Judging from the name alone, I anticipated something crusty, maybe hardcore d-beat. Instead, I found that the file contained the most saccharine set of pop-punk tunes to ever grace my ears in such a long time. Words can hardly begin to express how peppy this music is, or how good it makes me feel. I can't recall posting a band that was so capable of having such a positive influence on my mood since what, Objects or Booji Boys? Either-or, all I know is that Olvido has been helping keep my chin leveled and my toes tapping ever since I first listened to them.

I really can't get enough of these gals n' guy's music. As previously stated, I first had this four-track demo sent to me sometime last week, and its since been part of my daily ritual ever since. Just got back home from a job I absolutely despise? Put on some Olvido, that'll make me forget about how miserable I am. Tending to responsibilities that you'd much rather brush off? Olvido will help make that a little bit more bearable. Hating yourself with an unwavering fervor that'll soon prove to be the death of you? Well, I don't think Olvido can't do much about that, but you can still listen to their music and appreciate how lovely it is. Seriously, I've listened to this demo dozens of times by now, and even listening to it now as I write, I still find myself to be completely invested in every single one of these mellifluous punk melodies. For all I know, the lyrics could be composed of nothing but the most nihilistic, despondent statements that one can possibly conjure, but it definitely wouldn't deter me from fawning over those delightful guitar licks, spritely basslines, and honeyed vocal harmonies. The music exhibits just about everything that I would hope to hear from a pop-punk group, including dance friendly rhythms of varying tempos, and a utterly-captivating drum beats. Not to mention the stunning Julie Ruin cover (which isn't originally included in the demo, but it was paired with the file that was originally sent to me, so I'm featuring it here as well) that I honestly think has a huge leg-up on the source material. There’s no better words to describe Olvido other than infectious, mesmerizing, and more-importantly, downright-wonderful.
Olvido deserves the highest of praise, I couldn’t give them a stronger recommendation. If I were to compile a list of must-listen bands that I’ve featured on my channel, without a doubt, Olvido would definitely be somewhere on that list. I have no idea when (or if) that tape will ever reach me, but I sincerely hope that it's sometime soon, because I guarantee that it'll quickly become an all-time favorite in my collection. Listen to this. It doesn’t matter if pop-punk isn’t your cup of tea, because once you're done with Olvido, it will be.
Jimmy can u ask the members for the lyrics for the first song
I got the light thru the window
You've got the alcohol
I'm on the here and now
You're on the year before
I'm on a steady diet of really being here
You got a list of rules that makes things disappear
I see the moon in Texas
You see a bar that's dark
I want a revolution
You wanna make your mark
But it's not guilt I want or punishment I see
The world reorganized now
In terms of people's needs
Maybe tonight
We could bring the fuck into the fight
Maybe tonight
I can see that I don't wanna die
Maybe when I turn myself away
Every little thing you said I wanna throw it
All into the bay

i like this tape but - need your hot take on the pokemon go trend that has been taking over lately
some of the memes are muy fuego but otherwise i dont see the appeal. you cant even trade pokemon so why even bother? i tried using one of those gameboy link cables to steal my nephews pokemon but i think i just broke his charger port
