We mangled fifteen well-known Oz bands, past and present, through a Spanish translator. Madre del Lobo, for example, can only be Wolfmother, while Las Vinas has to be The Vines. Can you restore the combos before le proxima semana?

- Papa da Moda (5,4)
- Avion de Reactor (3)
- Hombres Trabajando (3,2,4)
- Sorbete (7)

Can you create any more bilingual disgisues?
