Mas Borracho is the fourth album by Infectious Grooves, released in 2000.[4][5] The title, as written on the album, is "but drunk" in Spanish. However, it is most likely a misspell of "más borracho", meaning "more drunk" or "drunker".

Critical reception[edit]

The Sunday Herald Sun called the band "as technically perfect as any outfit", writing that the album contains "such perfect slow-funk tracks as 'Lock It In The Pocket' and 'Borracho'."[6] Rock Hard wrote that "the music is as always: well played, pleasantly live-like and powerfully produced. But that doesn't hide the fact that Mike [Muir] and the like present us nothing more than boring funk-metal-rock with typically thin vocals."[3]
