Los Crudos is an American hardcore punk band from Chicago, Illinois active from 1991 to 1998 and from 2006 onward.[1][2][3] Comprising all Latino members, the band paved the way for later Spanish-speaking punk bands in the United States[2] and helped to increase the presence of Latinos in the country's predominantly white punk subculture.[4] They have been described as "one of '90s punk's truly great bands"[5] and "one of the greatest hardcore bands...ever." [6] Paul Kennedy additionally describes them as "very popular in both the 'crusty' scenes in North America."[7]
