San Antonio psychedelic space-cumbia band Combo Cósmico has released a Spanish-language cover of the iconic song 'How Soon is Now?' by English rock band The Smiths.
Local spaced-out cumbia band Combo Cósmico venture into goth-y, post-punk territory with cover of"How Soon is Now?"
It's fitting that Muerte, known as one of San Antonio's smoothest vocalists, would cover a song sung by another consummate crooner, Smiths frontman Morrissey. Muerte's vocals are imbued with mystery, making the listener wonder what's to come.." The group's original tracks lean heavily on the reverb of Gonzalez's surf-rock guitar and Garza's spooky modular sounds. Some tracks even include chants intended as"extraterrestrial communication.
Rather than needing to take liberties with the lyrics to make things fit, Muerte's translation of"How Soon Is Now?" is word-for-word.The band plans to release another cover soon, this time of a Radiohead tune, according to Muerte.
