Fans prayed for Los Fabulosos Cadillacs return for nearly six years...

Within the Argentinean rock band's artistic hiatus, their tunes matured and deepened like fine aged tequila. We could have used the overplayed wine reference, but there is nothing mellow about their classic hit, "Matador." If you haven't crashed into the LFC mundo, then we suggest you crack the cover open and take a couple of burnin' shots of the ska-reggae-rock phenomenon. In honor of their latest album, "La Luz Del Ritmo" and their 2009 worldwide tour, MTV News spoke exclusively to the reunited group about their golden return.

Are you ready for the musical hangover?

This may look like a rock-infused mob shot from "Usual Suspects"...

But Los Fabulosos Cadillacs are unraveling their mysterious glare by giving us an exclusive introduction to their upcoming album, "La Luz Del Ritmo." The legendary Argentine roqueros offer a no-nonsense, sharp-edged fusion or hip-hop, ska, and traditional South American sonidos that radiate with intense originality. Their raw talento surpassed the 80s and 90s, but now they are ready to seal their third decade of success with a worldwide tour and their U.S. album release on March 10th.

Check out what la banda's sax player Sergio Rotman had to say about their musical reunion and recovering from band member Gerardo "Toto" Rotblat's sudden death right below.
