Perhaps Annapura’s biggest talent is harnessing the power of punk into small, efficient portions without copping out on the songwriting. This is evident on their third album, a short-running, seven-track affair that manages to cover a lot of musical ground. Opener “Dime” sets the pace for what’s to come, with hardcore drumming turning into blastbeats at the drop of a hat, while “Ener” shows what they can do with the occasional slow tempo. Standout “Perritos” is an amazing display of what this Mexican trio can do.
