Mientras Tanto

**Mientras Tanto** is a buzzing post-punk outfit hailing from Bogotá, Colombia, known for their moody, introspective soundscapes and lyrics that tackle modern urban anxieties. Formed around 2017, the band blends jangly guitars, driving basslines, and brooding vocals reminiscent of '80s darkwave, all while injecting a distinctly Latin American perspective into their themes of alienation, societal pressures, and existential dread. Their DIY ethos shines through in raw, energetic tracks like "Mancha Solar" and "Cero a la Izquierda," which have solidified their reputation in Colombia’s underground scene. With releases like the *Sesiones Carpa Alterna* live sessions and the urgent riffage of "Ecualizador," Mientras Tanto keeps evolving while staying true to their gritty, garage-rock roots. Catch them in dimly lit venues where their music feels most at home.
