O'funk'illo
High-octane funk metal with a heavy Andalusian soul. Aggressive slap bass meets flamenco-tinged riffs for a relentless, sweat-soaked party atmosphere.

O'funk'illo sounds like a street party in Seville that accidentally collided with a metal concert. It is loud, unapologetically rhythmic, and driven by some of the most technical slap-bass playing in the Spanish rock scene. The music carries a distinct Mediterranean heat, blending the grit of urban rock with the syncopation of classic funk and the soul of flamenco.
What truly sets them apart is their 'embrutessío' (brutalized) philosophy. They take the sophisticated grooves of funk and strip away the politeness, replacing it with distorted guitars and rapid-fire vocal delivery in thick Sevillian slang. It is a sound built for movement, characterized by sudden shifts from laid-back reggae skanks to explosive metal breakdowns that demand a physical response from the listener.
For the uninitiated, starting with their 2002 landmark '...en el Planeta Aseituna' is essential. It captures the band at their creative peak, showcasing their ability to weave complex musicality into songs that remain catchy, humorous, and undeniably fun. It is the perfect entry point for anyone who likes their grooves heavy and their energy unfiltered.
