Editor's note

Macaco 12's danceable protest from Barcelona

A Barcelona band mixing flamenco, reggae, and world rhythms with pointed social commentary.

For their sound, try 'Por Que o Macaco É 12?'. For their substance, 'A Peste' still hits hard.

When 'A Peste' came out, its sharp critique of societal injustice stirred real debate in Spain. That's the Macaco 12 signature: danceable rhythms that carry weight, like in 'Perdido' or 'Direito de Viver'. They make you move while making you think.

They formed in Barcelona in 2001 with Dani Carbonell on vocals and guitar. Their debut 'El Puerto' arrived in 2004, followed by 'Ingravitto' in 2006.
