[STONER] PROFANO - CIUDAD O MUERTE CHILE


Recommended Posts

Last week I happened to listen to some more super cool heavy tunes from that blessed land of Chile.

The tunes came from band Profano, a band I was totally unaware of before Cartonpiedra, one of the non-Russian visitors and contributors of the lively Russian stoner rock forum, shared the link of an album by said Chilean band.

Cartonpiedra actually introduced Profano as one of the bands which his own band had played with (but I don’t know which band Cartonpiedra belongs to).

 

Profano are four rockeros: Pablo Vial (vocals and guitar), Francisco "Jaiva" Vargas (bass and back vocals), Rodrigo Iglesias (drums and back vocals) and Gonzalo Valdivieso (guitar).

This is the line-up listed in myspace so I guess it’s the last one, as a change in it has been announced in myspace for 2009.

The band is active since 2002 and released the debut, self-titled album in 2004. The album shared by Cartonpiedra is the second one, Ciudad O Muerte, from 2008. The band announced another album to be released during 2009.

Anyway, the album shared by Cartonpiedra is the only one I could find in the web.

And it’s worth getting at least this!

As far as I could hear from this great album, Profano’s style is a generously psychedelic, downtuned South American stoner/desert rock played with a punk-metal attitude, so it sounds very groovy but often quite heavy. Nice!!!

As reported on the Spanish version of Rolling Stones, Profano’s songwriting (in Spanish) is devoted to exploring issues in the relationships among people, problems with family or a woman, or else social issues like metropolitan violence and so on.

Social involvement, heavy tunes, great melodies, and great riffage … That’s the mighty Chile Rock!
