The Avengers killed at the box office this past weekend - and is really, really awesome - but it's a team of white dudes. (One of them is sometimes green.) In other words; where are the Latin superheroes? Well, we at Remezcla have compiled a list of superheroes who do in fact, look like us.
In this interview, guitarist Leo Mintek of New York's future rock quintet Outernational had plenty to say about imperialism, capitalism, immigrants rights, and revolution in this exclusive interview.
Coming from a Middle Eastern Jewish family who fled religious persecution, Nuriyá brings to light the rich, folkloric traditions from her ancestors.

Rodrigo y Gabriela is the most awesome duo to come out of Mexico since burritos and tacos. No, seriously, they go from folk music to rock in about 3 seconds, all while never missing a chord on the guitar. They’re currently on tour around the US to promote their new album 11:11, so catch ‘em live before they go away to Europe, Asia and Australia (much like burritos and tacos, actually).
“Comprising 11 new self-written compositions, 11:11 is Rod & Gab’s personal “Gracias” to a first XI of musicians, both past and present, who have inspired them along the way. Alex Skolnick of metal gods Testament guests on the album, as do widely respected acoustic veterans Strunz & Farah.
11:11 is the long awaited follow up to 2006’s Rodrigo y Gabriela, which has so far enjoyed worldwide sales in excess of half a million albums.”-MySpace
