Arriba La L LP

Ladrones call their own sound "Flow Pesado," which is as good a label as any for nu metal, rap metal, trap, and corridos tumbados sung in Spanish over nine-string guitars, like three different record store bins got dumped into one. The Guadalajara band formed in 2021, signed to Rise Records, and built a following precisely by refusing to settle into one lane, pulling as hard from regional Mexican music as from 2000s rap-metal aggression. Arriba La L is their third album, pushing that same collision further.
