Capsula — Cassette

Intro

Capsula sounds like a collision between a 1960s South American psych-rock explosion and the gritty, leather-jacketed energy of the New York underground. Their music is defined by a relentless, driving rhythm section and guitars that oscillate between sharp, jagged riffs and expansive, shimmering feedback. It is a sound that feels physically large, occupying every corner of the room with a dense, analog warmth.

What truly sets them apart is their ability to blend the raw aggression of garage rock with the theatricality of glam and the experimental spirit of art rock. Drawing deep inspiration from the David Bowie lineage, they treat the power trio format as a laboratory for sonic exploration. The interplay between Martin's searing guitar work and Coni's melodic, driving bass lines creates a tension that feels both dangerous and meticulously crafted.

For those new to their orbit, Solar Secrets is the definitive starting point. Produced by Tony Visconti, it perfectly captures their 'garage-glam' essence. It is the ideal soundtrack for anyone who wants the visceral thrill of a live rock show paired with the intellectual depth of surrealist lyricism and space-age textures.

Capsula is a psychedelic rock band from Buenos Aires, Argentina, formed as a power trio. The band consists of a core formed by Martín Guevara (guitar, vocals) and Coni Duchess (Lisica) (bass, vocals), with Gonzalo Criado on drums. Their music blends psychedelic and alternative rock, characterized by powerful riffs and a guitar-driven sound. Formed in 1998 in Buenos Aires, Capsula has remained active since its inception as a touring and recording band, with activity across Europe, the United States, and South America.
