Instrumental, hard-hitting progressive rock from Peru, consisting of dual guitars, sax, electronics, bass & drums. As my pal Ken said, at times it sounds like early Black Sabbath with David Jackson added. Really good stuff and vinyl only!
"When we think of Peruvian rock naturally the first bands come to mind are Traffic Sound, Telegraph Avenue, Los Saicos and so on...
When we progress forward to today there is quite the new revival scene going on in Peru and for most leading the way in the roots of the psychedelic underground scene is a band called Cholo Visceral hailing from Lima, Peru...
Cholo Visceral is composed up of 6 members ages between 20-25 which create a high energy charged blast and an unmistakable sound frenzy delight for your ears complete with Horn, Drum and Guitar interplay of psychedelic Jazz not unlike early Miles Davis inprov with Pete Cosey, ...This leaves one begging for more!!! Cholo Visceral's sound is tight with the classic Latin hints of past and new, wonderful time phrasings and this album is purely intense and all instrumental [for those who are worried about language barriers]
Peru has always host to an astonishing variety of musical traditions that have managed to evolve concurrently... More astonishing, Peruvians as a whole seem to have embraced these traditions regardless of their class, regional or ethnic backgrounds and no doubt Cholo Visceral is now stepping up to take it's well deserved place in the great musical traditions and sounds we know and love from Peru...So kick back with you a nice cold Chicha de Jora and enjoy Cholo Visceral you will be amazed as i was and i cant wait to hear whats coming next from these fine lads...
La Rataza is the title cut which grabs you fast and dosen't let go!!! Track 3 Silvia Escarmiento and 4 Ki�n are personal favorites and take full advantage of guitar solos, finely crafted sound treatments slightly off kilter drumming [i love] and spacial euphoria..."
