It’s barely been a full week since Vancouver trio La Chinga unveiled the full-brunt rock and roll of their sophomore outing, Freewheelin (review here), and already news comes through not only of a plus-bonus-tracks reissue for their 2013 self-titled debut, but also of a European tour in support of the new record. This won’t be the band’s first time abroad, either. Not a bad way to start off a New Year.

The La Chinga reissue is due on March 11 from Red Sun Records, which by astounding coincidence is the day the tour begins in Spain. Freewheelin’ will be out on March 20 via Small Stone.

Red Sun Records re-issue of LA CHINGA debut album

It’s a great pleasure and honour to release Canadian superpower trio LA CHINGA’s debut album! The re-issue will be a limited edition CD with 3 bonus tracks.

The band self released their debut back in 2013 but the CD’s soon flew making it impossible to find the album in that format anymore. 3 years later it will finally be more easy to grab your hands around it.

The re-issue will be released next March 11th. The band’s second Spanish tour begins the same day in Barcelona and the album will be available on the tour!

One of our favourite debut of the last years, and certainly one that we felt in love with since the first listening. Hard rock with lots of space rock, boogie and grooves! If you dig the 70’s hard rock you dig LA CHINGA!

Tracklist:
1. Early Grave
2. Snake Eyes
3. The Wheel
4. Catty
5. To Let Silver
6. Boogie Children
7. Country Mile
8. La Chinga
9. When I Get free
10. The Universe Is Mine
bonus tracks
11. The Reaper
12. Freedom Machine
13. Precious & Grace

La Chinga Self-Titled Vinyl Available Now

Posted in Whathaveyou on January 5th, 2015 by JJ Koczan

Originally issued by the band in April 2013, the self-titled debut from Vancouver heavy rock trio La Chinga is available now on vinyl through Bilocation Records. The German purveyor has pressed up the album in a total edition of 333 copies, with 111 in an exclusive marbled mailorder version and 222 on yellow wax, all handnumbered with a quality stock on the gatefold cover and three bonus tracks. Not my wont to tell you your business or anything, but it sounds like a pretty sweet deal for a record that’s continued to gather acclaim more or less since the second it dropped.

So much so that, last I heard, Small Stone had picked up the three-piece for the follow-up to La Chinga, which may or may not be coming later this year. Either way, if you dug the debut or missed it, info on the vinyl follows, hand delivered down the electronic cables of the PR wire:

LA CHINGA debut album sees european vinyl release – available now.

La Chinga is a stoner boogie power trio sitting on the world’s edge in Vancouver, Canada. Drawing from Sabbath, Zep, the MC5 and their own superbad habits, La Chinga has established a penetrating buzz across Canadian campus radio. Selfreleased in 2013, the band’s debut self-titled album prompted ecstatic reviews from the kind of people who wonder why they don’t make ’em like this anymore.

“With their electric black magic unleashed and in full flight, they bonded with the children of the forest over Cro-Magnon riffage, pounding drums, banshee wails, bell bottoms, boogie vans and the sweet miracle of tequila. Through sheer stoopidity, brutality, violence and volume they honed their primordial craft into a sonic axe of stone, opening skulls with deadly precision for as far as the pterodactyl flew.” (from: La Chinga Biography)

Their debut album which is “made by rockers for rockers” is honoured now with the european release including three exclusive bonustracks.

The sale starts through our store on 30/12/14.

La Chinga are:
Carl Spackler: Bass, Vocals
