Pura vida, mai!

Evolucion is from Costa Rica, where a "pura vida" ("life, pure and simple") is a catchphrase. Costa Rica is like a little mini not-quite-as-developed Australia (good surf, tropical forests, environmental awareness) plopped in the middle of Central America.

The vocals have a certain Spanish-language-rock feel to them, but they're actually a lot better than I imagined they would be when a Costa Rican surfer-dude pothead attorney introduced them to me in Buenos Aires.

Plus I can never pass up an opportunity to party like it's 1909.
