Situated in Southern California, Los Angeles is known for its mediterranean climate, ethnic diversity, sprawling metropolis, and as a major center of the American entertainment industry. Los Angeles lies in a large coastal basin surrounded on three sides by mountains reaching up to and over 10,000 feet (3,000m).
Historically home to the Chumash and Tongva, Los Angeles was claimed by Juan Rodríguez Cabrillo for Spain in 1542 along with the rest of what would become Alta California. The city was officially founded on September 4, 1781, by Spanish governor Felipe de Neve. It became a part of Mexico in 1821 following the Mexican War of Independence. In 1848, at the end of the Mexican–American War, Los Angeles and the rest of California were purchased as part of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, thereby becoming part of the United States. Los Angeles was incorporated as a municipality on April 4, 1850, five months before California achieved statehood. The city experienced rapid growth with the discovery of oil.
Los Angeles is the third album by Japanese rock band The Brilliant Green, released in 2001. This album represented a shift in the band's sound, from the 1960s-influenced jangle pop to a darker, heavier early 90's shoegaze sound. When The Brilliant Green was featured on Time Magazine's "Ten Best Bands On Planet Earth" article, it was Los Angeles that was listed as their key album.
Track listing
All lyrics written by Tomoko Kawase, all songs arranged by The Brilliant Green.
East L.A. is located immediately east of the Boyle Heights district of Los Angeles, south of the El Sereno district of Los Angeles, north of the city of Commerce, and west of the cities of Monterey Park and Montebello.
The unincorporated area known as City Terrace occupies the northern part of the East L.A. CDP.
Transportation
Light rail service to East L.A. is provided by the Metro Gold Line's Eastside Extension, which opened in 2009.
Los Angeles is the second studio album by American music producer Flying Lotus. It was released by Warp Records on June 10, 2008. The cover was designed by Timothy Saccenti, and the album title is named after Flying Lotus' place of birth.
Critical reception
At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average score out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, Los Angeles received an average score of 81% based on 13 reviews, indicating "universal acclaim".
It ranked at number 3 on Resident Advisor's "Top 20 Albums of 2008" list.
Los Ángeles were a Spanish pop group active 1963-1976. Originally the band was known as Los Ángeles Azules (The Blue Angels), the "Azules" was dropped when contracted by Hispavox, then a major independent Spanish label, in 1969.
The band disbanded after the death of two members in a car accident in 1976, though surviving members played reunion concerts in the 2000s.
"Los Angeles" is a single written and performed by Black Francis, it was the first track on his solo debut album Frank Black, released in 1992. It served as the main theme song for the short lived but cult phenomenon VH1 talk show Late World with Zach. It was also featured in the soundtrack of Tony Hawk's American Wasteland as well as being featured in Yeah Right, a skateboarding video directed by Spike Jonze with professional skateboarder Eric Koston skating to this song. Also, a music video was made for this song featuring Black himself. The music video was featured on an episode of MTV's Beavis and Butt-head.

Situated in Southern California, Los Angeles is known for its mediterranean climate, ethnic diversity, sprawling metropolis, and as a major center of the American entertainment industry. Los Angeles lies in a large coastal basin surrounded on three sides by mountains reaching up to and over 10,000 feet (3,000m).
Historically home to the Chumash and Tongva, Los Angeles was claimed by Juan Rodríguez Cabrillo for Spain in 1542 along with the rest of what would become Alta California. The city was officially founded on September 4, 1781, by Spanish governor Felipe de Neve. It became a part of Mexico in 1821 following the Mexican War of Independence. In 1848, at the end of the Mexican–American War, Los Angeles and the rest of California were purchased as part of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, thereby becoming part of the United States. Los Angeles was incorporated as a municipality on April 4, 1850, five months before California achieved statehood. The city experienced rapid growth with the discovery of oil.
The crowd began to wave From the freeway overpass We joined the parade Right behind the marching band You said "Wave back, cause these are the best days of your life." And I said "I know, I can't feel anything" And up, up on the Ferris wheel I can see L.A. and all the freeways I can see your face So close to me And I can dream my dreams And light the night Like a drive-in movie screen (You know....) On a hot summer day We laughed in the Polaroid Counted all the ways, To slow down our time machine And in my mind all I could Think was that love is war And you know I'd surrender anything And up, up on the Ferris wheel I can see L.A. and all the freeways I can see your face So close to me And I can dream my dreams And light the night Like a drive-in movie screen Oh no, I don't want to be another Scar on a bar stool
