Totimoshi albums In a rare display of earnest self-awareness, Bay Area trio Totimoshi were the first to admit that 2008's Milagrosa -- their fifth full-length and first for Volcom Entertainment -- was something of a transitional project; comprising vocalist/guitarist Tony Aguilar and bassist Meg Castellanos' determined effort to not only distance themselves from once dominant post-grunge influences (particularly drawn from the Melvins and Nirvana), but to incorporate their shared Latin heritage ...

Totimoshi discography It's been nearly four years since Oakland, CA's power trio Totimoshi slipped a new disc onto the shelves. 2005 saw an enhanced reissue of 2003's 'Mysterioso?, but that hardly counts. The reason is simple: Totimoshi sound like a re-energized, completely new band. Guitarist Antonio Aguilar and bassist Meg Castellanos (the two founded the band) have been constants, but the drum chair has been a revolving door. The addition of ...

Totimoshi CD discography No, not a Japanese group, this is a metallic Oakland power trio (they do have a half-Cuban female bassist, though, which is far more rare for this sort of group) releasing its third LP. Imagine this: the band's music is too huge -- heavy even for old grunge fans, and too raw for your average metal follower. There's nowhere they fit in, which makes them more interesting -- they're ...

Totimoshi albums Totimoshi's second album, Monoli, arrived in 2002, three years after their oft-forgotten debut, and finally ensured that the San Francisco trio would not be overlooked again. The formula? One part noise rock, one part `90s alternative rock, and one part sludge -- bringing to mind a sonic slurry concoction of the Melvins, Helmet, Sonic Youth, the Jesus Lizard, Dinosaur Jr., the Toadies, and even Nirvana.

Totimoshi music CDs No, not a Japanese group, this is a metallic Oakland power trio (they do have a half-Cuban female bassist, though, which is far more rare for this sort of group) releasing its third LP. Imagine this: the band's music is too huge -- heavy even for old grunge fans, and too raw for your average metal follower. There's nowhere they fit in, which makes them more interesting -- they're a genre to themselves.

Totimoshi: Antonio Aguilar (vocals, guitar); Meg Castellanos (bass); Johann zamora (drums).
