Originally a quartet of 3 brothers and a Spaniard, Cabron released end of december 2006
their debutalbum "Cabrón" on Buzzville Records,
(mastered in Sweden
by veteran Göran Finnberg : Spiritual Beggars,The Quill, Generous Maria...) and received in no time raving reviews from the international press.
The Californian based “Hellride Music” selected their debut album
as "pick of the month" and their sound is often been referred to bands
such as Queens of the Stone Age, Fu manchu, Soundgarden
and even Foo Fighters by the international press.
With their highly explosive concerts they've shared stages with bands such as
Therapy? (EIR), Biffy Clyro (UK), Mission of Burma (US),
Brant Bjork & the Bros. and Dozer (DK) and the Dutch concertclub
“Effenaar” found them to be one of the better live acts.
“The music they're playing is in their blood.
It's the music itself which excites them,
that's why they're solid as a rock.” (VPRO's “3voor12” / NL)
“A carefully selected mix of heavy riffs, melodic vocals
and pumping rhythm section which generally turns
their live shows into an explosive event” (Goddeau zine)
Due to the recent line-up changes (Manu Mores is replacing youngest brother Pé
Reynders on guitar), Cabron has been working with Manu to get everything back in shape as well as working on some new material and meanwhile trying to enjoy summer holidays. We'll be back after summer!!
"CABRÓN"
Recorded winter 2005-2006 by Patrick Delabie @ Studio 195 .
Mastered at The Mastering Room in Sweden by Goran Finnberg
(Spiritual Beggars, Blind Dog, Generous Maria, The Quill...)
StuBru (B): “Straffe plaat...sterk!”
"Zware aanrader van Belgische bodem!"
Goddeau.com (B): "With producer Patrick Delabie they've produced a dry and rock solid sound which displays the best of influences: the classical grooverock of Unida and QOTSA, straight forward melodic rock (of all times), and the American guitarbands which raised hell ten to fifteen years ago.
The album shows the same carefully selected mix of heavy riffs, melodic vocals and pumping rhythm section which generally turns their live shows into an explosive event....With their debut they play themselves straight into the premier league of Belgian (hard-)rock, in the company of similar sweaty bands like Triggerfinger, El Guapo Stuntteam en Les Anges (Hulk).
A Flemish band with balls , charisma and songs.
What are you waiting for ?"
Soundslike (B): “A sound which resembles the straight forward powerrock of Fu Manchu and the spherical grunge of Alice In Chains.Or like the famous but not too clever bullfighter Jesulin once said : “En dos palabras: im presionante!”
Hellride Music (US): "Cabrón is the real deal...The pick of the litter this month!
Absolutely recommended if your ears lean toward Queen of the Stone Age, Atomic Bitchwax and Kyuss."
Lowcut (DK): "...catchy hooklines, riff, cool drumming and a bass tight as hell...Cabron’s sound bears some references to QOTSA...a cool release!"
Kwadratuur (B): “...“Cabrón's general iron live-performances are being perfectly translated here to CD...an irresistible collection of 9 seasoned songs which documents the band as one of the most adventurous and full-grown Belgian rockoutfits...'Cabrón' is the debut of a band which already hasn't got anything to prove anymore, the only thing the band needs to do to gain more fans is keep playing and make records.”
W-Fenec (F): “Guitares sulfureuses, basse épileptiques, rythmiques branchées sur 100 000 volts...Cabron se laisse quand même écouter avec un plaisir incroyable...A suivre absolument.
Stonerrock.com (US): "...on this Belgian-based group's self titled debut, the majority of the songs manage to rock with an accessibility that doesn't sound safe. “Your Lesson Learned,” “Empty Room,” “Burden,” and “Effective Beast” have an almost peppy aggressiveness that make the band seem like a mainstream cousin of QOTSA.
Make that a mainstream cousin of QOTSA with some strong playing.... good riffs and good melodies. If that's what you're looking for, then Cabron is for you."
Metal Frontiers (GR): "'Cabrón' is full of energy that makes it almost possible to picture the band playing their asses off live...this is a 45 minute feast for your ears."
Ultrarock (F): “Depuis Channel Zero jamais la Belgique ne m'avait fait autant vibrer !”
Krinein.com (F): “Une petite bombe qui éclipse instantanément...un disque de rock viril capable de recueillir les faveurs d'un large public.”
Lords of Metal (NL): ”People who like their music with a good dose of 70's influences should give this a listen and be amazed”
Rock Tribune (B): “Debut album from these veterans from Leuven and immediately they struck gold...Patrick Delabie produces a concrete sound.”
Up Magazine (NL): “...rockmusic with a face of it's own...pumping rock in the shadow of Queens of the Stone Age and Therapy?”
Rifraf (B): “Delicious pounding record which at times reminds us of the debut of QOTSA. Filthy riff-o-rama like it's supposed to be !”
Metal Experience (B): “Varied drumming combined with screaming en smoking guitars in the vein of bands like Queens of the Stone Age , Fu-Manchu and Kyuss and accommodated with the necessary 70's influences ...a very worthy debutalbum”
Albumrock (F): "...le quatuor se place davantage sous la bannière des Foo Fighters, le power-rock puissant et maîtrisé du pendant électrique de In Your Honor formant une analogie plus juste que le hard rock psychotique de Songs For The Deaf."
Like Sunday (F): “...les Belges mettent le paquet, et envoient du riff gras sur des rythmes groovy, ça me fait penser à Soundgarden / Awesome Machine / Sparzanza...Très bon disque !
Unfortunately we've had to cancel all shows due to severe back problems of our drummer (yep, me).Good news is that the rest of the "cabronadas" are working on new material so with a little bit of luck, we'll see all of you again soon!

In 2007, the American government found out that 70% of its secret intelligence budget is spent on private contracts and that “Cold-War intelligence bureaucracy is transforming into something new, where contractor’s interests dominate.” For American society (Congress included), their activities remain classified, which allows them to gather more and more important functions in their hands.
The same is happening to private military companies (PMCs), which have been assuming more and more army and police functions. On a significant scale, it started in the nineties in former Yugoslavia, but contract workers were especially widely used in Afghanistan and other conflict zones. They did the ‘dirtiest’ actions.
But this is not seen by the mid-level leaders, while the top-level world managers are, on the contrary, informed quite well; it is they who are implementing the ‘controlled chaos’ and general disintegration policy, including a civil war and the disintegration of the United States planned for the end of 2009, a scenario that is being widely discussed both by American and world media.
We are witnessing the creation of the global electronic concentration camp, and crisis, conflicts and wars are used to justify it. People tend to tremble in the face of an imaginary danger and are too lazy to see the real one.
