Desaparecidos

Hi this is my first post. I will be posting weekly. I love music, all kinds. Finding a new band or an old one that has a great story, is something I enjoy. Each week I plan on posting on a band like this.Theres this old band, unpopular. I love it. The music is much different then anything thats out now. Colins lyrics no matter what style in which he is singing are different and realistic.Desaparecidos is a band product of Colin Oberst of Bright eyes. Fame of this band was very shortlived, it was a punk rock/indie band with Colin as singer and guitarist of the band. Conor did this as a minor side project while slowly gainging popularity. Now he is known for his popular indie folk band 'Bright Eyes'. Bright Eyes has been touring and making new music in the past recent years. They have since appeared on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and have participated in a "Vote for Change" tour in 2004 and released two albumbs in 2007. Desparecidos was the punk rock/indie band that went basically unrecognized compared to the popularity of Oberts new style.

some minimal fame in 1992
