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.

Hardcore Mexican music fans might not like it, but do you know who’s the hottest Mexican act touring the world nowadays? It’s not Cafe Tacuba, it’s not Mana, it’s not Los Tigres Del Norte. It’s Rodrigo y Gabriela, a couple of acoustic guitar players from D.F. who actually come from Dublin, Ireland. Yup.
Since their surprisingly big entrance into the music world in 2007, Rodrigo y Gabriela haven’t stopped amazing festival crowds and packing arenas both sides of the Atlantic and have sold over a million copies of their self-titled debut album, released on a small label at a time when, supposedly, nobody is buying albums any more. Oh! And they’ve also recently performed at the White House alongside Beyonce.
On August 18th, their latest tour of the USA brigs them to LA’s Greek Theatre. From the other side of the world, Australian opening act Xavier Rudd and Izintaba fuses folksy, acoustic rock with the digeridoo and other traditional Aboriginal sounds.
Children under 5 are not allowed at this venue.
