El Gran Silencio
El Gran Silencio is a rock en español band from Monterrey, Mexico that blends a variety of rock, reggae, dancehall, and hip-hop influences with traditional Latin American musical forms such as cumbia, vallenato and Norteño. Their lyrics tend to be bohemian and often talk about life in the “barrio” or poor neighborhoods of Mexican cities, especially Monterrey. As of 2015, they have recorded seven albums, eleven singles, six soundtracks, five tributes and seventeen collaborations and have toured Mexico and the United States.
==The music==
They are unique on the Mexican music scene〔 〕 with their music being called world beat, cumbia grupero and rap〔 〕 but, their musical style crosses various genres and can combine any number including hip-hop, reggae, norteño, cumbia, rock-and-roll, polka, huapango and vallenato.〔 〕〔 〕 Much of what keeps it together are Latin folk rhythms and the use of accordion licks.〔 〕〔 The band has called their work“freestyle norteño popular;”〔 however, founder Tony Hernandez strongly links the music to rock as he says that rock showed that mixing genres is possible and they maintain rock’s rebellious nature.〔 〕〔
Their work, especially their early work, has received criticism, and some dismiss it as "naco" (low class), as they celebrates subcultures such as chúntaros, barrio youths wearing baggy pants and hip-hop musical tastes.〔 As one of few major Mexican alternative bands with authentic barrio roots, Silencio works to get that culture more accepted by mainstream Mexican society.〔 Life in the barrio is a very common theme in the music.〔 Tony Hernandez often talks nostalgically about life in his hometown of Monterrey, grilling carne asada on the street and playing the Beatles or La Tropa Colombiana along with family and friends.〔 However, their lyrics are more bohemian than materialistic.〔
Although rap was a major element in their early work, unlike Spanish language rap artists, they perform live with real instruments.〔 They also collaborate with other musicians on projects, to add instruments such as congas, or event to extend the band into ten pieces, with the configuration of an Afro-Caribbean orchestra with brass and percussion sections.〔 〕〔〔 〕 The album ''Chúntaros Radio Poder'' creates the day in an imaginary radio station, with a number of popular Monterrey DJs of the time taking turns presenting the songs.〔
