Jaguares - 45 (2008)

Rock en Espanol outfit Jaguares continue their winning streak with 2008’s 45. Veering between punk-pop and indie rock, with tasty psychedelic flourishes, each of the album’s 10 edgy tracks brims with pop hooks and surging energy. “Lobo” and “Visible” are among the album’s highlights. From front to back, 45 is a solid rock album, proving once again that Jaguares are turning out music that rivals anything from their British and North American contemporaries.
