Viernes 13 is finishing working on their 1st full length release in 6 years.  Currently they are mastering the album.  The guys told me the album will have a Rock Steady Sound as well as the classic Viernes 13 sound, their fans love.  Interesting fact about Viernes 13 is a tattoo artist in Huntington Park [...]
