"The video for 'No Me Jodas' is inspired by the aesthetic of 'chicha'—a music culture out of Peru that is also about economics, work, partying, life, desire, and nightlife."
"The ethic, as put by one Chicha musician, Chacalón, is two words: chamba and vacilón (hard work and partying)."
"Public Luxury features tracks such as 'The City Begins', 'Sirena', and 'Viva la Rosa', showcasing the band's punk-rock style."
Downtown Boys are set to release their new album, Public Luxury, on June 26 through Sub Pop. The album follows their 2017 release, Cost of Living. The single 'No Me Jodas' is accompanied by a live video directed by John McKay. The video draws inspiration from the Peruvian music culture known as 'chicha', which emphasizes themes of economics, work, and nightlife. The album is co-produced by band member Joey La Neve DeFrancesco and engineer Seth Manchester. The band has announced several live dates leading up to a larger tour.
