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
'Capsula sounded alternately like straight-up scuzzy garage punk and like Death Valley 69-era Sonic Youth ... Pretty good! '

Ruta 66
'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.

'Un encuentro entre Spacemen 3, BRMC, Stones, The Drones ...Abrasivo, contundente, suenan a lo que les gusta y lo hacen estupendamente...'

Best Of 2009 - Zarata Mondosonoro.
Por derecho propio (por personalidad, coherencia y consistencia) este vendaval sónico de beat y procedencia mestiza copa la lista de lo mejor del año con un disco que les debería hacer llegar lejos. 'Songs & Circuits' (Liliput, 2007) fue sólo un aviso, y cada directo suyo, una revelación.'

If one were to create a mathematical formula for the level of a band's awesomeness, it would need to include factors such as: 'Amount Of Guitar Noise,' 'Exoticness Of Members,' and 'Ratio Of Punk Influence To '70s Rock Influence.' Run Capsula's numbers, and the result is: Highly Awesome. An analysis of these results reveals: Extremely High Potential To Blow You Away. 'Amount Of Guitar Noise' equals motherloads - 'Wild C' is replete with the roaring of motorcycles, and 'The Sea Cave' drives drunkenly along a dirt road. 'Exoticness Of Members' equates to plenty. Founding members Martin Guevara and Coni Duchess live in Bilbao, Spain, but are originally from Buenos Aires. 'Ratio Of Punk Influence To '70s Rock Influence' is one-to-one. Duchess' vocals on 'Fighting With Tigers' is full-on riot grrrl, while the acoustic guitars are psychedelic. Factor in her 'Huh!' at the beginning of 'Girl! Whip Up the Sound' and the increasing catchiness of Rising Mountains on each subsequent listen, and it's clear: Capsula will rock not just your world but more than likely, the whole world.
