While I'm waiting to hear back from Frank, I'll put up a link to the latest song to embed itself in my head irrevocably. That track is "Van Nuys (Es Very Nice)" by Los Abandoned. Los Abandoned is an outfit from the L.A. area that is just bursting onto the scene. They've got a unique style, largely resulting from the blending of pop-punk and Latino influences. This particular track is tremendously bubblegummy, but they've got some darker and harder stuff as well, although everything is rounded off a little bit at the edges by the dulcet voice of Lady P. They have a few additional songs for download at their website, so be sure to check it out!
Update: Just in case you're not paying attention, I'll be removing the link in a week or so. Standard policy for audio blogs.

To be 100% clear, I am not affiliated with the band in any way. I just like them. You should go to their website (follow the link in the body of the entry). They have a link there to an internet store where you can buy their CDs.
