   About The Diablotones
The Diablotones early incantation started in Feb 95". The Diablotones took the 3rd wave ska movement into a completely different direction. By blending Latin Ska, Bosanova, Surf, Punk, & Polka vibe which was felt throughout the U.S., Canada, & even Europe.

MTV picked up our entire 1st Album. Which was featured on the REAL WORLD & ROAD RULES. That was about the height of the band. We were more interested in keeping a D.I.Y. movement.

Spreading our thoughts of unity. Which we suceeded @ shows. "You can't change the world, but you can influence each other to be kind to one another." This was our purpose. And just having an amazing time playing to all of you. The Fans (Well we choose the word "friends") We'd have discussions during & after shows getting to know each other, our scene, and the common interest of a "drama free" scene. There's video around somewhere, where kids are dancing on stage filling every inch so they can skank along side us. The footage is amazing.

Our S/T was released in 1997 which was an amazing experience. We never thought how many people still to this day still have this cd. And give us praise . This record put us on amazing journey touring with so many great bands.

2nd release "Dia De Los Muertos" 1999 was another strong record which let us travel a little more. It didn't have the momentum as the our 1st record. Losing key members due to careers, life changes, had affected the outcome.

In 2002 I decided to end the journey In Portland, Or. w/2 original members we felt the heart was gone.

2006 a few of us have been talking about a reunion w/ at least 5 original members. The missing 2 either in a mental institutions?...in prison?...dead or M.I.A.?

So lookout for us in 2007!!!!

Great show last night!! A rockin good time...So when's the next? :)

I see the comment below saying your first CD is a 90's classic, so does that make my Freak Magnet Cassette a collectors item??? :D

That is lame what you told me about your 1st album at last nights show. That thing is a 90's Ska Classic, I still cherish my CD. Since you guys still sounded so great after all these years, re-recording your 1st album is a boss idea. I'm all over it if it’s released on Green Vinyl.
