About Los Vellocets
"Don’t know much about Uruguay? Here’s a good place to start. Raining down a volley of twin-guitar heroics and foot-stomping bass is Montevideo’s own Los Vellocets. Their influences drip with Motor City sweat making the best of a Nugent / Stooges mashup, stoner rock, and 60's psychodelya . Throwing in a bit of MC5 irreverence and plenty of Detroit diesel lead the charge in “No Regrets.” The song packs a punch (complete with cowbell and piano) as it stagers out of the speakers more punk than straight up rock. Mixing it up comes the country, tex-mex swagger of “La Maldita”. “Wake up,” scream the lyrics, “Forget the world, forget your name, be yourself…that’s what it all about.” Pile that onto a chugging riff with a stripper backbeat and you get one of the sexiest song on the disc. “Quit” follows suite with a grinding bassline leading into a whipped up guitar duel. The slow blues burner “Shake My Soul” winds the whole thing up with an array of feedback before launching into a frenzied attack that guarantees we remember who they were and how hard they rocked us."
