As previously announced, La Armada is releasing several new songs throughout the year – including the brand new “White Jesus,” a blistering song about skin color, colonialism, and the Caribbean.

Check it out below.

The new songs will be included on Anti-Colonial Vol. 2, out later this year on a host of labels: Lockjaw Records (UK/Europe), Thousand Islands Records (Canada) and through the bands' own Mal De Ojo Records (US/Latinoamerica). But fans can get several of them in a single package via the newly released Opías EP.

La Armada released Anti-Colonial Vol. 1 in 2018.

200 Words Or Less

I usually lean more melodic than heavy in my daily listening. But there’s a time and place for everything, and La Armada definitely hit that craving for pure vitriolic aggression. The Chicago by way of Dominican Republic band play metal-tinged hardcore that’s blunt, brutal and angry. While there are metallic influences in the guitar, the songs are always under 3-minutes … Read more
