Maldita Vecindad y los Hijos del Quinto Patio is a Rock en español band formed in Mexico City in 1985. Since then, the band has collaborated with other bands, as well as having participated in tribute albums like the tributes for José José and Tigres del Norte. Their sound incorporates many styles, including Ska, Rock, and traditional Mexican forms such as the bolero. Roco, the band's vocalist, dresses in a manner reminiscent of the Pachuco, an archetypical character represented by Tin Tán in the Mexican cinema.
