There's also a band called Tendencia, playing some kind of rapcore/tribal folk metal highly influenced by the Afro-Cuban folk music. They're one of the oldest active Cuban rock bands (formed in 1993). Not really my kind of music, but they deserve attention because they have a lot of songs with lyrics dealing with political subjects, like Guevarism. My views on Che Guevara are far from admiration, and nowadays' Cuba seems to be as far from true socialism as China or Vietnam... but wait, I don't live there, and the members of Tendencia may have a better sight on all these matters. Here's their cover version of a well-known song "Hasta Siempre, Comandante" dedicated to the memory of Che Guevara:And for a comparison - the same song, performed live by a Romanian band, Interitus Dei:
