How do you say "emo" in Spanish? Insite. The six-piece Mexicali band is cut from the same cloth as emotional rockers Dashboard Confessional, Thrice and Thursday, but, like their northern counterpart Yellowcard, Insite has a not-so-secret weapon: a violinist.

Formed in 2000, Insite consists of pixie-haired Aree (Violin), Konrado (Vocals), Kar (Guitar), Miky (Bass), Johis (Drums) and Gabo (Guitar and vocals). Their debut album, Una Vida No Es Suficiente (One Life Is Not Enough), was released on Movic Records, the indie label that launched popular Monterrey emo-punk outfit Panda. According to Insite's management, Una Vida sold 5,000 copies in its first week, a number that jumped to 25,000 albums sold after the band's videos – the brooding Cielos Que Lloran and the Kill Bill-inspired Sola, which became a cliffhanger after they went over budget – hit Mexican airwaves.

The melancholy "chicalenses" plan on releasing Una Vida in the U.S. sometime in 2008 and, once they save a little cash, completing part two of their Quentin Tarantino-inspired video double-feature.
