Biografía de Mägo de Oz

Mägo de Oz are a heavy metal band hailing from Begoña, Madrid, Spain who formed in 1989. Since their debut in 1994 they have released 13 studio albums of Celtic-influenced folk metal and become one of the most highly regarded acts in European metal while doing so.

The idea behind Mägo de Oz stemmed from the band's drummer Txus di Fellatio, who first began putting the band together in 1989. It took him three whole years to settle on a full-time line-up, during which time the band created their first three demo tapes under the name Transilvania, and by 1992, the band had made their live debut at a festival called the “"Concurso Villa de Madrid". It was another two years before the band recorded their debut album and changed their name to Mägo de Oz, but while their eponymous first record was well received by those who heard it, very few people actually heard it. Although the next two years would prove to be incredibly trying for the band as they were plagued by line-up troubles, their second album, 1996's “Jesús de Chamberí” would save their career.

Thanks to the album's strong sales, a succesful tour of their native country in 1997 would cement their reputation as the hottest new metal band in Spain. Ever since then, the band have grown to become genuine titans in their home country, with huge, ostentatious live shows at festivals and arenas to match their standing as true rock stars. Theyve also made an impact overseas, with their gospel spreading to United States as well as all over Europe. At the helm of it all is still Txus after over two and a half decades, and the band don't show any signs of slowing down yet, 13 albums and counting into their career. For proving that success can come no matter how strange or esoteric a band is, Mägo de Oz come highly recommended.

Biografía de Molotov

With a career spanning for nearly two decades, Molotov is a four-time Latin Grammy Award winning rock band that formed in Mexico City, Mexico in September 1995.

Molotov embarked on their career in 1995 when two friends, Tito Fuentes, and Micky “Fled” Huidobro, began playing together. Javier de la Cueva and Ivan Jared “La Quesadillera” joined them, which became the first full line up of the band. Their line up changed a couple of times whilst they found their feet but they finalised their line up the following year, which has remained up until the present day. When they opened for Illya Kuraki and The Walderramas, A&R’s from Universal came to the show and offered them a recording contract.

Taking up Universal on their generous offer, in July 1997, they released their debut album entitled, “Dónde Jugarán las Niñas?” which caused controversy because of it’s lyrics and cover. It didn’t stop Molotov from being entrepreneurial in going on out on the streets and selling their discs as a form of protest. They have never held back on their lyrics, which have been described as poisoned darts aimed directly at the heart of the oppressive paternalism of the government.

They have built a name for themselves as a fantastic live band, having toured Europe and North America, and playing at the 2009 Coachella Music Festival, and they even released a live album in 2012 entitled “Desde Rusia con Amor”.

Not only have they won four Latin Grammy Awards, but they have also picked up an MTV Video Music Award for “International Viewer’s Choice” in 1998 and three at the MTV Video Music Awards Latinoamérica 2003 for Best Group or Duet, Best Alternative Artist and Best Artist from Mexico. They have impressively won an award for five of the albums that they have released, which is quite an accolade.

Críticas en vivo

Rata Blanca (English: White Rat) is an Argentinean band that is showing the world, one show at a time, that Buenos Aires knows how to rock…hard. Since their inception in the late 80s, the heavy metal band currently consisting of Adrian Barilari, Fernando Scarcella, Walter Giardino, Guillermo Sanchez and Danilo Moschen continue to travel the world to play their live shows for their fans (with the exception of the three year hiatus that they took).

I’m not really a heavy metal fan, and I only speak English, which is why it is actually really interesting to watch Rata Blanca’s live set. I’ve been to a few metal shows, as per request of my friends, but to witness a metal show done entirely in Spanish seemed to redefine my opinions of the genre in general. I guess it was because I could see the complexity of the genre if you take away the meanings (lyrics) of the song and concentrate entirely on the instrumentals. With only the flashes of the spotlight on the band, your really couldn’t get a good look of the band, but damn is there sound massive. It is an in your face heavy guitar, heavy drums experience.

If I’m completely honest, this band, Mago de Oz (Spanish for Wizard Oz), are pretty darn weird, bringing to the table the strangest concoction of metal, folk, Celtic music and symphonic metal – I know. How strange right?! This band are from Comunidad de Madrid in Spain, are truly individual. This Celtic Metal is a real thing, where bands like Dragonforce and Iron Maiden have dueling guitars bouncing off of each other in the most intricate harmony; this band has a violinist and a flautists alongside their dueling guitarists. The whole journey is just pretty mind blowing, I don’t know what to make of them. They’ve released 15 studio albums and 4 live albums, giving them and endless back catalogue to choose from for this set this evening. One of the lasting thoughts that I have with me is that this band’s fans are relentless. They know every single word to every single song; they have their hands in the air for this whole show throwing up their horns. Just insane, and impressive.

‘What genre would you say Molotov fall into?’ It really is a struggle to find the correct answer to this question. This is because, unable to fit into any of the typical style groups that we tend to categorize into, this band have succeeded in creating their own style, a fusion of several styles and the result is something special to say the least.

Though they may not look like your typical rap or rock stars, four Latin Grammy Awards are evidence of the impact and quality of the music that this group produce. Hailing from Mexico, one can’t help but notice that their music and lyrics are politically inspired, stemming from times of struggle in their homeland.

These messages do not distract from the skill of the musicianship that is showcased at a Molotov live show however, rather complementing the blend of heavy bass lines and melodic guitar riffs that characterize the Molotov style. As if seeing the music come to life on a stage wasn’t enough, being in the crowd at a Molotov concert is an experience in itself.

Be prepared for plenty of head banging and jumping as the energy from on stage infiltrates the audience and encourages you to lose yourself in the music. If you wish to experience something that you’ve never experienced before, go to a Molotov gig.
