Música para niños espookys

I've just finished watching Los Espookys on HBO and I loved it--especially the soundtrack! Can anyone point me in the direction of even more awesome Spanish-language goth, punk, or post-punk music I can listen to?

Goth/punk/post-punk/darkwave/etc. bands that sing in English (or other languages) but are from Mexico or other primarily Spanish-speaking countries are also fine. Genre edge cases are also totally fine. I'm using the Los Espookys soundtrack as a starting point for my search, but I love recommendations. Thank you!

Best answer: might be an edge case but Aviador Dro always ends up on my goth playlists.

Best answer: Parálisis Permanente - Quiero Ser Santa (Wiki)
Alaska y Dinarama - Club de Egipcios | Esclava del Mal/ Brujas de Ayer (see Alaska y los Pegamoides and Alaska y Dinarama: Fangoria is more techno than postpunk - wiki for Olvido Gara/Alaska)
El Luto del Rey Cuervo - La Carroza Negra
Gothic Sex - Nightbreed in Midian | I Lost My Faith (yeah, SEO optimized band name =_=)

Linking to Aviador Dro's cover of Joy Division's "She's Lost Control" because yeah.

Best answer: Loquillo y los Trogloditas - Carne para Linda because rockabilly + grave robbing and cannibalism is fun.

Response by poster: YESSSSS I love these! Thank you so much for the awesome recs!

I'm still tinkering with it and may still be adding/subtracting a few tracks, but if anyone is interested, I've started making a Spotify playlist featuring songs from the Los Espookys soundtrack, these great recommendations, and other songs I found while going down a Spanish-language post-punk internet k-hole yesterday afternoon. Enjoy!
