Something about vehicles speeding through the desert that always make us flash back to Smashing Pumpkins’ “Today“– right, when Corgan had hair and before he creeped us out. Here, on a fairly frantic trek minus the overworked ice cream man, paint fighting, and smooching couples — the fun stuff! — Kinky buckle up for a remake of “Mexican Radio” from the forthcoming Reina Deluxe.
Actually, there’s plenty of fun to be had on this particular Mad Max-style road trip: Accordion, electronics, wacky guitar poses, and they must’ve used some hella voodoo to get that chicken to take the steering wheel when the band opts to rock out on the roof without their, uh, cock out. (That was a chicken joke, pervs…)

any Reina’s song in better than this one… that album is pretty awesome…
They played this during their set at the Treasure Island Music Festival on Saturday.
Stan Ridgway FTW.
I always hated this song and not even Kinky can remedy that.
if you’re gonna cover a song, make it your own. this is just pointless
The original version was mucho bedder
