Get used to that name right now - Tribus. This guy, Carlos Soto, is a player's player. Instrumental riffing that has some Latin and Salsa influence. You can hear another taste of this spicy stuff on this issue's Hard Music Sampler with the song "Brain Damage" (Tribus also had a cut called "Picante" on the May/June '98 Hard Music Sampler). The sonics are clean; and, unlike some instrumental albums, the songs aren't too long. Fans of Primus and Trip will get a real kick out of this. This 15-song disc is essentially a re-issue of the last disc we reviewed, with five new songs added.
