Wiretap Records has added another band to its growing roster, Camiches, from Mexico City.

Formed in the early 2010s and drawing comparisons to Basement, Touche Amore, and others, the band will release a self-titled record on their new label home later this year, which will be the first non-English language release but likely not the last from Wiretap, based on comments from label owner Rob Castellon:

As a Mexican-American myself, it gives me extreme pride to have the chance to work alongside Camiches for this release. Their Feeling Core brand of hardcore, and post-hardcore has been a staple in the DIY scene in their hometown of Mexico City. Like many more my age, especially in Southern California, I grew up embracing as much music in English as I did in Spanish. With the U.S., a country where 41 million residents speak Spanish only in the home, why wouldn’t a Spanish-speaking artist be a likely addition to the roster.
