The walls of the dining room were tinted pink with pigments found in local soil. On the floor is a jerga, the common floor covering of the Hispanic hacienda. All the furniture found in these rooms was made in New Mexico during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.

EL PULQUERO México, Octubre de 1854.- I.

El pulquero es un personaje sociable, que puede entablar relación con cualquiera que se acerque a su mostrador, viste un modesto mandil de jerga y camisa con las mangas arremangadas hasta los codos.

Su labor comienza por la mañana lavando las tinas y los vasos para despachar, seguido de la llegada del pulque transportado en mulas, donde es bautizado con discreción. No es un secreto que es mezclado con agua e incluso no se toma con agrado cuando lo venden puro.

El pulque se vende por cantareo que es cuando es entregado en el domicilio y por vaseo que es cuando se consume en la pulqueria, dejando así mayores ingresos por la inexactitud con la que se despacha y permitiendo la preparación de un rico curado.

La pulqueria se destaca por sus paredes coloridas adornadas con personajes populares para llamar la atención de los marchantes. Su competencia es el cervecero.

ROUND TRIP MEETS WITH VINNUM SABBATHI

Vinnum Sabbathi, the Doom four piece who could have been born around any roaming celestial body, released this year their debut full-length, showing what kind of heaviness they are ready to spread. Profoundly inspired by the universe, gravity, space and everything sci-fi related, the quartet is one of the most illustrious bands of the Mexican underground, being at this moment ready to unleash, for the first time ever, the Doom from space in Euro lands....

Could you guys tell us a little bit of how was the band formed?

Juan: Back in 2011, the band was only me. I started Vinnum Sabbathi to try to make heavy music of my own since I was in small cover bands at the time; I homely recorded the Demo with cheap recording gear (I mean REALLY cheap stuff). Later I met Samuel (our bassist), since I started playing with his band Bloodwitch for a short time, then I invited him to join VS and we made some drone shows as a duo.

In 2013 we met Gerardo, when he was part of Bar de Monjas. We became good friends and he quickly got on the slow vibe of VS, we recorded Side B as a 3 piece band in 2014. As we played live we realized that we needed someone to deal with the samples we put in the songs, that’s why my brother Roman joined the band mid-2014.

Gerardo is doing his PhD in Europe, therefore he only comes to Mexico for short periods of time, so for shows around the country we have been fortunate to have “Mico” (Apocalipsis, Nazareno el Violento) filling the drums with us.

What lead Vinnum Sabbathi to play this kind of music, heavy and slow? Are there any bands that particularly influenced you?

J: Heavy music is something I got into since high school and considering I was bored playing covers, I decided to experiment with VS, where low tuning and lots of distortion were the main thing. I was fortunate to find people who shared that love and we try to get that sonically in the band.

Now, even if we like the same bands, each one has different influences; Roman digs a lot of 60s and 70s hard rock and krautrock: Gerardo is a diehard fan of Fu Manchu, Truckfighters and QOTSA while Samuel likes punk and desert rock.  

Do you guys have a specific songwriting method or do your songs come out from spontaneous jams?

Most of the time, someone comes with a riff or a section of a song and we jam on that, adding more ideas until we’re happy with it. Then, we try to add samples at the right times. One thing that surprises me often, is the good connection we have with each other when playing new ideas, most of the time we have a finished song from a simple idea at the end of a rehearsal.

How is the current musical scene in Mexico? Do you feel the public supports the underground's bands?  

J: Compared with South America or Europe, there’s a small scene, but there are great bands I think everyone should know. Heavy music (Stoner Rock, Doom, etc) is starting to grow around here with an amazing response from the public. I have been on tour around the country many different times and even in the most remote places, we have been fortunate to have support from the fans.

Like I said, there are amazing bands all around Mexico and one of our goals with the upcoming tour, is to share it them with everyone over there and that’s why we’ll release a huge digital compilation in our label’s bandcamp (LSDR Records), giving away stickers with download codes, so everyone can give a listen to what’s happening here.

You may not be aware of this, but over Europe, there's a sense of danger associated with Mexico. Is that really true? In what way does it influence your musical work?

Well, I must say that the current situation in Mexico is not the best in many ways, not only in security but also politically and economically. It seems like the only news everyone’s hearing outside, are about the drug cartels and the violence they produce.

For me, Mexico is way more than that. I have visited several states while on tour and I always found a warm welcome from the local people, a truly superb food and towns full of history. One of the things I love and feel lucky to be able to do, is going on tour with VS, because there are always new places to visit, people to meet and landscapes to admire. One historic moment for me was playing in Jergas Festival, which takes place in a small coliseum, in a place called Real de Catorce ,in the middle of the desert in San Luis Potosi. Just the road trip to get there is surreal.

We choose not to include (or include the least amount of) any social or political themes in VS, not because we don’t care about it, since we’re aware of the violence, poverty and corruption that takes place daily around here; we live in a marginalized zone outside Mexico City and we deal every day with all kinds of difficult situations, but because we feel that the music's vibe we make does not fit with political subjects.

After a successful number of splits and smaller releases, “Gravity Works” came out as your first full-length record. What has been the response so far?

The response has been massive for us, as an independent band from a small town in Mexico, we didn’t think we’d receive that amount of support from people all over the world, it took me 3 days to ship all the CD pre-orders that bandcamp fans bought and that was crazy but cool. The album was included twice in the monthly Doom Charts so I think most people liked the new stuff.

You're the first Mexican band to be part of the great South American Sludge Records, founded by Los Natas' Sergio Chotsourian. How did that deal come to life?

Well, there’s a blog called Doomed & Stoned Latinoamérica (where my brother Roman works) and some time ago he interviewed Sergio about his career and current situation of the underground in Latin America, sharing ideas and bands from both scenes. Later he kindly invited us to join SAS, with the new album with a digital release there.

The SAS family is very close, everyone supports their local bands and the ones from other countries as well; we’re representing not only Mexico, but all the Latin American scene in the upcoming tour. We hope more bands can be heard over Europe as the time goes by.

Gravity Works by Vinnum Sabbathi

When it comes to choosing artworks, you have an impeccable taste of visual artists. You have already a lot of collaborations with many artists, each own with their unique kind of artwork, such as David Paul Seymour, Mike Sandoval, Guro or Hellbound Graphics. How do you think this kind of art impacts the underground music? Are there any artists you'd like to work with?

We have a lot of great artists in the underground scene and we love to work with a lot of them, when we have the chance. Our buddies Valde (Hellbound), Mico and Mike Sandoval have done amazing art for splits and for the new album. There are also cool designs for merch, courtesy of Diego Bureau, David Paul Seymour (artwork below) and Lesuperdemon.

Almost everything they have done is related directly to space, with each one adding their unique perspective to it, which we love. Their work has been an important part of the identity of the underground around here. There's also a collective called Los Grises, who always tries to add visual impact, making live paintings during shows.

I personally would like to work with a space artist called David A. Hardy, he makes beautiful artwork related to space and sci-fi, it would be an honor to work with him some day.

Let's focus on the next step of your career, your upcoming Euro tour, which you're certainly looking forward to start. You'll be passing through Germany, UK, Scotland, Portugal and you're still on the lookout for more dates. Are there any places or bands you are particularly anxious to play?

Well, practically I’m anxious about everything! We have never been in Europe and coming from a small town to a different continent, the experience will be like landing on a different planet, I guess. I want to visit as much as I can, make a lot of friends over there and of course see a lot of bands that I have admired for years and new ones that sound awesome.

We don’t know if we will be able to return soon to Europe, because of the hard economic situation of Mexico, so we want to make as much as we can over there.

What should the European public expect from your live shows?

That will also be a new experience for us, but I think people will have a good trip with our music, everyone who loves heavy riffs and powerful sound pressure levels has to be there. There has been a vibe in our live shows here, with the public that always creates a good atmosphere, hope we can get there with the upcoming tour.

Based on the variety of samples used on your songs, you have a pretty solid knowledge about movies and documentaries. Could you recommend some of your favorites?

I think “2001: A space Odyssey” has to be mandatory and there are tons of great documentaries on YouTube about the space race, NASA’s history and the current missions and scientific developments. I can recommend you “The Right Stuff” and “When we Left Earth: The NASA missions”.

As you mentioned before, you guys work on LSDR Records, Roman has D&S Latinoamérica and you also produce amplifiers cabinets under the name of Tamayo Amp. When did this adventure of yours start?

LSDR started as a blog to share the upcoming shows and releases from the underground scene. Later, we decided to create our own label just for the physical releases of VS but shortly we realized we could help other bands as well, so far we have Saturno Grooves from Durango, the new album from Cegvera (Gerardo's side project) and we also distribute the new album of Dejalosangrar from Chile. We have a bandcamp where people can listen and download a ton of Live Bootlegs that we record in shows and also releases from past bands as well as compilations with the best of the underground. With Doomed & Stoned Latinoamerica, Roman was the mastermind behind it. He made a team of contributors from different parts of Latin America to create a platform where the underground bands from this part of the world could collaborate and know each other, so far so good. Tamayo Amp has been my job for a couple of years now, I make custom speaker cabs for bass & guitar. I started back in 2013 making my own cab since I couldn't afford an Orange or Mesa at the time (damn, I still can't afford one today) and then people started asking me to make cabs for them. There are almost no boutique companies in Mexico making gear, so I think it's a good time to start something. I can recommend you some good local brands like Paradox Effects from Tijuana and CMP who make good SS amplifiers.

To wrap the interview up, what have you been listening to lately?

Well, since we’re making the LSDR compilation, I have been listening a lot of Mexican bands of course. I can recommend you Terror Cósmico and Weedsnake (who will be also in Europe too), Saturno Grooves, 33, Owain, Cannabian and also from Chile an amazing band called Dejalosangrar.

Mexican Baja Hoodies and Jergas

Not sure exactly what a baja hoodie or jerga is? Well, I will explain to you what they are even though you probably already know them but just by a different name. You might know them as drug rugs, sudaderas jergas, Mexican ponchos, hooded Mexican serape blankets or Mexican pullover sweatshirts. The baja shirt is a piece of traditional Mexican clothing that has the pouch in the front and a hood in the back. They are typically made of multiple colors and are either 100% cotton baja material or a blend of polyester, acrylic and cotton. The small baja hoodie is a little bit different than a typical small in America because the sleeves are a little bit longer. But when you go to a medium the length of the sweater is a little short compared to the arms and the same goes when going from a medium to large or extra large.

Don't be surprised that your Mexican baja hoodies are a little bit short from the shoulder to the waist, that is just how they are made. All of them are hand made in Mexico if they are authentic. Mexican threads are the best type of quality you can get for any baja shirt. Many people think they are called Mexican baja ponchos but ponchos do not have sleeves or a hoodie. A poncho is essentially a small Mexican blanket with a hole for your head.

There are many place online where you can buy baja hoodies but you will most likely not be able to find them anywhere online. https://giftinger.com/product-category/mens-fashion/hoodies-and-sweatshirts/

Twitter Is Pissed Michael Kors Showed Traditional Mexican Sweaters At NYFW

When Michael Kors debuted his ready-to-wear collection for spring and summer 2019 at New York Fashion Week on Wednesday, some people recognized two very familiar articles of clothing that didn’t seem to belong.  

The designer included a black-and-gray hooded jacket and a sleeveless black, green, red and white version ― a design known in Mexican and U.S. Latinx culture as a jerga.

SIPA USA/PA Images

A model wears a Mexican-style jerga at a Michael Kors fashion show in New York on Sept. 12.

Their inclusion in Kors’ collection is sparking cries of cultural appropriation. Many people online feel the jergas’ appearance in the show gives the impression that the designer just “discovered” them, and some are questioning the likely markup on the typically inexpensive item.

so michael kors is just gonna start making thousands of dollars out of something that mexican artists have been doing for years and years . well i already got it last year for 100 pesos… 5 DOLLARS. hell nah that ain’t it

stop doing this shit !!! it’s annoying & unfair !!! pic.twitter.com/9liz446S8f

— Jorge Islas (@islasfjorge) September 14, 2018

Luis Urrieta, a professor of cultural studies in education at the University of Texas, Austin, elaborated on the jerga and its background in an email interview.

Explaining that “jerga” can mean “cloth” or “rag” in Mexican Spanish, Urrieta said “the sweaters in the Michael Kors runway fashion show have been worn by mostly working class youth in Mexico and in US Latinx communities for a long time.”

“They reflect more traditional ponchos and the patterns are similar to zarapes that have been worn in Indigenous communities for a very long time,” he continued.

Urrieta explained why their inclusion in the Kors collection smacks of cultural appropriation. Indigenous and Native peoples, he said, “are often taken advantage of” when selling their “arts and designs out of necessity to make a living.”

“They are not paid fairly for their jewelry, designs, embroidery, or articles of clothing while their products end up in fancy boutiques or marketed by fashion designers (such as Kors) in other places in the world at expensive prices,” Urrieta said.

“So, this is a serious issue, which involves not just the outright theft of the items themselves, including by ‘buying’ these items at cheap prices, but also the theft of the knowledge bases of their origin,” Urrieta continued. “It is also a violation of the relational ways in which material culture is produced, and the purpose of the use of these items in communities.”

The Michael Kors company did not immediately comment when reached.
