Hard Day II

Tuesday is, in my opinion, the hardest day of the work week: you're no longer energized from the weekend like you were on Monday, you aren't clearing the hump like on Wednesday, and the approach of the weekend isn't tangible like it is on Thursday and Friday. Tuesdays, thus, are fucking hard. And so, in commemoration of surviving Tuesday, every Tuesday I will post something that is hard. I would explain what I mean by hard, but I'm tired and I think that these videos will speak for themselves. Remember: THIS DAY IS WORTH LIVING.
Day Two: Thell Barrio-"Mi Verdadera Familia"
These guys are basically what Brujeria would be like if they were actually Mexican and played beatdown hardcore.  I'm not sure how "legit" they are, but given their improvised gang garb and the fact that they were able to get an entire barrio neighborhood out for the video, it seems likely that these guys are for real.  Angry, confrontational, willful, and unwilling to take shit: in other words, the perfect track for a hard-ass Tuesday.  Also, this is one of the few beatdown tracks to get breakdowns, pig squeals, and a false ending right (hint: one goes about such appropriately and judiciously).  By 2:40, you're about ready to spin-kick the wall into oblivion.  It's worth hearing just as an example of how to do tough-guy hardcore the right way.
