Pegotes is a Chilean punk rock band known for its high-energy performances and anthemic melodies that captivate the local scene with tales of everyday life, social issues, and personal struggles. Formed in the late 1990s, the group quickly gained notoriety within the punk circles of Chile, channeling the raw, unfiltered spirit of early punk rockers while incorporating their unique South American perspective. Through a run of albums and singles characterized by catchy hooks, rapid tempos, and a rebellious attitude, Pegotes carved out a niche for themselves as mainstays in the punk rock landscape of their homeland.
Their recent releases, such as "La quiero a Morir," "Salú," and "No Somos Distintos," showcase their continued evolution as musicians while never straying too far from their punk rock roots. Songs like "XXI" and "A la mierda" serve up critiques of modern society, punctuated by the kind of contagious riffs that have become the band's hallmark. "Hasta Cuando" and "Tenemos Punk Rock" reaffirm the band’s dedication to the genre and the lifestyle it represents, proving that their two-decade-long journey has done little to dull their edge. With their self-titled offering "Pegotes" and the energetically charged "El coronta," the band reassures fans old and new that their pulse on punk is as strong as ever. Pegotes remains a vital voice in the Latin American punk scene, bringing their blend of raucous energy and an ardent following into the tumult of the 21st century.
