"On a cold Wednesday night, fans packed the music club Nublu on Avenue C for Bronx-based punk group Planta Industrial, who launched their new EP, Punk Wave Sin Barreras [Without Barriers]. The group is led by two Dominicans from the Bronx: Saso Worldwide, (Roosevelt Castillo) and AKA The Darknight (Andrew Adames), who saw their first viral hit That's My Bh last year and are rocketing through the New York City music scene and well beyond."
"In the borough which created hip-hop, Planta's unique sound blends hip-hop vibes with punk music metal, emo, screams heavy bass and fast beats made for moshing (which the Nublu crowd joyfully did). Castillo and Adames' signature fashion eye-catching chains, grills, streetwear and neo-grunge looks also sets them apart, as does their seamless flow between English and Spanish lyrics. Images of the new album lined the walls of Nublu, the Avenue C music venue that hosted Planta Industrial's release show."
"The crowd went wild for Planta's set as they played the new EP and a couple past singles. They included Teteo in the Bronx, an ode to their home borough that opens with, Yeah we live up in the Bronx, we talk like st up in the Bronx, getting lit up in the Bronx, but don't get lit up in the Bronx. Probably the biggest hit on the new EP is Oi, which features a catchy chorus of fist-pumping shouts with a play on hoy, the Spanish word for today: Manana no! Oi! Oi! Oi!"
Planta Industrial released the EP Punk Wave Sin Barreras with a packed Nov. 19, 2025 show at Nublu on Avenue C. The group is led by Bronx Dominicans Saso Worldwide (Roosevelt Castillo) and AKA The Darknight (Andrew Adames), who gained traction after the viral hit That's My Bh.

Signature fashion—chains, grills, streetwear and neo-grunge—complements a seamless mix of English and Spanish lyrics. The release show included DJs playing bachata, reggaeton and alternative rock, and enthusiastic crowd moshing.
