Chupame El Dedo - Chupame El Dedo
This is a band you should see live at least once! As it is hard to imagine something like grindcore cumbia. The duo of Eblis Álvarez (Meridian Brothers) and Pedro Ojeda (Romperayo, Los Pirañas, Ondatrópica) prefer to live cumbia the rough psychedelic way.
It started with a commission by Detlef Diederichsen, director of the ‘House of World Cultures’ in Berlin for a Festival called “Evil Music” or “Böse musik” in October 2013. The idea was to recreate a death metal group with influences of tropical music. This record (Eight tracks, around 25 minutes total time) dates from 2014 and was recorded live at the Isaac Newton Studios in Bogota. Álvarez and Ojeda explore grindcore, speed and black metal cliches whilst getting your hips swaying with a tropical rhythm section made of salsa, cumbia, currulao & reggaeton.
The result is pure tropical madness, stylistic dislocation and very very fast drums. Head banging mojitos!
