CAPSULA / RUTA 66 MAGAZINE / DECEMBER 09

'Hay algo tangiblemente atávico en el sonido que conjuran Capsula sobre un escenario, un básico latido eléctrico que te protege del contaminado exterior en invisible, cálida envoltura amniótica. Es una vez más el primigenio ritual de la existencia tomando aviesa conciencia de su compás en el presente, la breve permanencia de esos preciosos segundos en que el ahora revolotea consciente antes de desvanecerse hacia el voluble receptáculo de la memoria. Algo que no puede simularse, que surge naturalmente de quienes metabolizan una tarea expresiva sin la que sus vidas carecerían de vértice o sentido, aquellos que como ellos siguen el imprevisible derrotero que les marca un camino donde sólo hay rumbo venidero, nunca huella dejada. Sin pararse a mirar atrás, huyendo hacia adelante, única forma de no dejarse atrapar por un destino que se detiene momentáneamente confundido por el fragor de la amplificación, Cápsula se erigen en catártico espejismo. Han embotellado tan formidable vibración en Rising Mountains (BCore, 2009), expansivo exorcismo de psicodelia que mira a las alturas para elevarnos de la prosaica cotidianidad, hecho de cánticos tribales bañados en rock infeccioso y reptante empujándonos hacia esa voluptuosa dimensión en que la realidad será suplantada por el chapoteo en inconscientes lodos, allí donde la razón deviene inútil ante la fosforescencia de lo visceral. La enésima verificacián de que, ay, todo es justamente transitorio y captar el instante, ya no aprehenderlo, la única posibilidad.
Ignacio Julia. Ruta 66.

'There is something tangibly atavistic in the sound that Capsula conjure on stage, a basic electrical pulse that protects you from external contamination in an invisible amniotic warm folds. Something that can not be simulated, something that emerges naturally from those who metabolize an expressive task that without it, their lives would have no meaning or vertex, those who like them follow the unpredictable course that will mark a path where there is only a next direction, never a trace left. " "They have bottled such tremendous vibration in Rising Mountains (Bcore, 2009), an expansive exorcism of psychedelic, looking to the height to rise above the everyday mundane life' 'The umpteenth verification that, alas, everything is just temporary and to capture the moment, no longer to apprehend it, is the only possibility.'
Ignacio Julia. Ruta 66.

CAPSULA IN ROLLING STONE, DAVID FRICKE'S PICKS

Rolling Stone - Fricke's Picks, David Fricke
'Capsula a kinetic trio from Bilbao, Spain - singer-guitarist Martin Guevara and bassist Coni Duchess, the band's founding couple, are originally from Argentina - who were supposed to be obsessed with the Velvet Underground (according to a newspaper preview) but were actually a high-velocity union of the Cramps and the Who, coated in corroded glam. Guevara attacked his guitar with a serious case of Pete Townshend, and drummer Alberto Diez was an improbable mix of Keith Moon and the Velvets' Maureen Tucker: flash with heartbeat. In the last song of the set, a furious space-out that sounded like the Who doing Pink Floyd's 'Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun,' Guevara swallowed his mike Lux Interior-style and scraped his guitar strings along the edge of the stage. You don't get those visuals with Capsula's new album, Rising Mountains (BCore), but you get the idea - and everything I heard.'

PITCHFORK SXSW REVIEW

Pitchfork Media

'Capsula sounded alternately like straight-up scuzzy garage punk and like Death Valley 69-era Sonic Youth if Kim Gordon sang all their stuff. Pretty good! And I definitely wouldn't have heard them if they weren't playing so loud'.
