tropical madness

Chupame El Dedo

Chupame El Dedo (suck my finger), is a collaboration between the Colombian bands Meridian Brothers and Romperayo, or to be more precise, between Eblis Alvarez and Pedro Ojeda respectively. It was created for a one-off live performance commissioned by the House of World Cultures in Berlin, for the Festival "Evil Music" in October 2013. The idea was to explore the death metal sound whilst adding strong tropical elements.

Because of the success the band still exists today. The first album was released in 2016 on Discrepant Records. Distorted voices, metal and even sometimes gabberhouse-like clichés are mixed with a tropical rhythm section made of salsa, cumbia, currulao & reggaeton.

Their second album No Te Metas Con Satan was released in spring 2019 on Souk (a sublabel of Discrepant), followed by an European tour during which they played a.o. Tremor (Azores), Alice (Denmark), and venues like Patronaat and Worm (both in The Netherlands). In 2021 they really killed it a Le Guess Who?.

The 7″ Mi Rehabilitacion/No Seas Malo was released by Bongo Joe in May 2023, followed by a succesfull European tour, playing shows at Bad Bonn Kilbi, Roskilde Festival, Beaches Brew and KlikoFest, just to name a few.

In October 2025 they will tour Europe again, and a second 7″ will be released, again on Bongo Joe , in September.

Expect tropical disoriented madness, stylistic dislocation and curious sounds. Head banging mojitos!
