Press:
The Fader: "Less 'rock band' than all-out 'experience,' a thoroughly modern hybrid that defies easy categorization."
LA Weekly: "A theatrically vibrant blur of thrash-mariachi, psychedlic distortion, histrionic vocals, performance art, punk rock, surrealism, Mexican telenovelas and five-dollar-store fasions."
ARTFORUM: "Globe-trotting emissaries of trash in translation, a refreshing brand of cross-cultural misprision... Talk about a surprise vantage on the touchy elisions of imperialist modernism!"
Fluxblog: "This is technically an ESG cover, but there's got to be a better word for what Los Super Elegantes do with this song. The basic elements that make "Dance" one of the best dance songs ever written remain intact, but the band adds new verses and hooks that actually build on the greatness of the original. It's rather like buying a buying a beautiful old house and renovating it so that everything you add to the structure only enhances the aesthetic charm of the design."
Gorilla Vs. Bear: "The band, whose name loosely translates to 'The Super Elegantes,' is unclassifiable in its greatness. Each song seems to dabble in about 3 different genres and multiple languages, and yet it somehow comes together perfectly.
Hey Culito

Tirada en la cama
Te ves muy bien,
Tirada sobre el piso
Te ves muy bien.
Yo no se porque me vas a conocer muy bien,
Si me vas a estar correteando
Yo no se porque me vas a conocer muy bien).
Niña, te estoy buscando, niña
(Ajá que me voy a escapar no me importa)
Niña, te estoy buscando, niña
(Ajá que me voy a escapar no me importa).
If you're comin' over you, better not to mova
(Chico... gonna slap your culito)
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!
Me voy para tu casa, estas enojada
Te digo: "¿qué te pasa?, ¡no te encules!"
(Te pasaste por mi puerta y me estaba vistiendo
La musica esta fuerte y no te puedo oir,
Me di vuelta y tu estabas trepando la ventana
Me miraste a los ojos y no supe que hacer).
I was drivin' the freeway you pass me on my ride
You were screaming at the window (¡hey culito!),
You spit it at your car (I was crying very juicy)
I mentioned "didn't know", I was crying too.
Tirada en la cama
Te ves muy bien,
Tirada sobre el piso
Te ves muy bien.
(Si me vas a estar correteando
Yo no se porque me vas a conocer muy bien,
Si me vas a estar correteando

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!
The song "Hey Culito" by Los Super Elegantes is a fun and upbeat song with lyrics that are mostly in Spanish. The lyrics seem to describe a playful chase between two people who are attracted to each other. The singer compliments the girl, telling her that she looks good both lying on the bed and lying on the floor. He also warns her that if she's going to chase him, she'll get to know him very well.
The singer then admits that he's been looking for the girl, and she tells him that she's going to escape from him. He responds by telling her not to get upset with him. The lyrics then describe a scene where the girl is climbing into a window while the singer is getting dressed, and they both seem unsure of what to do next. The chorus repeats throughout the song, warning the girl not to move if she's coming over, and playfully threatening to slap her "culito" (butt).
Overall, the song seems to be a lighthearted and flirtatious commentary on attraction, with playful lyrics that suggest a back-and-forth chase between two people who are interested in each other.
