Brownout gives Black Sabbath tunes a Latin-funk groove
by Steve Smith, The Boston Globe
Q. The Latin-American community is passionate about heavy metal. What accounts for that?
A. It’s funny, my brother-in-law says that Mexicans are about the three M’s: metal, Morrissey, and mariachi — Morrissey was a big thing, too, for some reason. I agree with you, in Laredo metal was a big thing. I think that there’s a lot of struggle with certain communities and certain parts of the country; it’s a good escape for people to just let it all out through some heavy music. The Morrissey thing, I just never quite got it; I have a lot of respect for Morrissey and the Smiths, but I never connected with it. I think metal makes a little more sense.
