South America just never ceases to amaze me with their rich and various punk hardcore scene. This time I listened to and reviewed the new record by Vagales.
These guys hail from the town Cali in Colombia and play an energetic mix of melodic hardcore and punk. As I can understand this record is their debut album and it is awesome. The album contains 8 tracks. The vocals are angry but also melodic and just right for this kind of hardcore punk. If I must compare the music with someone then I would say that the guys remind me a bit of 88 Fingers Louie only a bit more angry. The lyrics are in Spanish, so I dont understand what they are singing about, but it sounds damn good. The choruses are anthemic and I think that the live shows of this band are awesome. This is a great record and one more proof how the underground network is invincible. Top songs: “Levantate”, “No Te Quiero”.
