Second place in the Concacaf group, Costa Rica is back in the World Cup and is sure to have some interesting results., Their football has evolved favorably, long since shedding the Cinderella label in the competition. The same can be said of their music scene. San Jose, its capital, has recently experienced an explosion of great bands, cutting-edge sounds, and fun material. Among the list of interesting groups are those close to noise rock, such as Colornoise and Las Robertas, those that have brilliant instrumental experimentation such as Mountain, those associated with reggae such as Dread Force, to neo-folk as Foffo Goody and to alternative pop Alphabetics.
