Colombian Metal

I only know Masacre they are very old, I had a Vynil called Requiem (I sold it) I think but I don't remember how it was :s

I have listen Colombian bands there is one called Eternal isn't it? I hear I think 2 Mp3 of them
 
I hereby contact you and request more infrormation and insight.

Who are your favorite Columbian bands and why? What do you think of Liturgia?

Is Bogota the center of the metal scene? Is metal/extreme music ruled by the cities or do people come down from the hills to support the scene? Actually, I assume that it's in the grey area in between. Could you explain that grey area at least a little bit, please? What other cities in Columbia have some extreme music action? Is there much of a socially/politically conscious movement within the metal/extreme music community?

I think Cali has a big metal scene and also the best colombian bands are from there
 
I'm sorry for misspelling Colombia. I'm an idiot, but I'm learning.

SC: Right on. That crazy raw shit is what really caught my ear. Liturgia blows my mind. It actually sounds like it's being recorded in a guerrilla camp under attack while the band is screaming out the last words of the resistance. I wish I could understand the lyrics. Vobiscum Lucipher I'm pretty sure I've heard. I seem to remember them not being just another black metal band as their name suggests, rather some off the wall rawness.

SB: That link didn't work for me. As you call Legend Maker the best, could you describe them please? What can you tell us about playing with Misty Fate or any other bands with which you used to play? When and where did you play? What kind of places did you play? What were the crowds like?

Cali, eh? (checks map) Very interesting. Thank you.

Are there any metal/extreme music festivals in Colombia?

PS: in my opinion Legend Maker and Mistyfate are who rock the metal scene in Colombia, but also check twilight glimmer!!!
 
Thank you very much!

Your English is fine. I had no problem understanding. I'm glad to read that the scene down there has so much energy. I think it's great that it's so open with the festivals and jam sessions. It sounds like one hell of a party. Many people are interested. I'm just more persistent than most. :]
 
How is Bogota compared to the summary of Cali posted above? What kind and how many places are there to play for a band of metal? How often can one see a show there?

I love the fact that Colombia is so into metal. It's exactly the sort of movement Colombia needs.

Rock on Colombia!
 
Hello to all!!!

katatonianathema@yahoo.es

and Masacre is the best metal band in Colombia!!!

sorry for the english hehe ;)
 
Try MISTICIA. They are freshly formed and will soon release their first EP on YAHUAR MALLCU (Bogota). It features our lead guitarrist and I happen to shout a bit there too as a guest singer. They play quite decent Death-Thrash with a bit of folk influence (Samponas e.g.).
Well, all I can say is, that the Colombian scene is really alive!!!
 
John: Thank you for helping us understand your view on the scene by typing in English. I think that y'all should discuss more in Spanish, but I'm very grateful when you bother with English.
