Hijos de Mayo is a stonernoisepostrock band from Eindhoven Rock City. Or poststonernoiserock, whatever you prefer.
Hijos de Mayo started out as an instrumental band in 2006, after having been active as Gifkip for almost 10 years. Influences range from slow spacey grooverock a la Kyuss and 35007, and bands like Mogwai, Helmet, Sonic Youth and Motorpsycho. From thick dense slow riffs, to screeching noise, together with spacious and wide sounds and atmospheres.
In the beginning of 2007 they recorded and self-released their first mini-album. Soon after that they were joined by Boukje (voice and noise) to make even more fun and decibels, adding a Daisy Chainsaw-feel to it in the process.
2008 brought some more changes: Part 1 of The 4-Track Tape Adventures was recorded, this proved to be the last recordings with Joost on drums. He stepped out, and Ivo came to replace him. Near the end of the summer Hijos de Mayo plans to be back on stage.
As Gifkip they recorded two demo's that got described as adventurous and experimental spacerock. They contributed the song Tom Violence to Evol, a cover-album where different bands recreated Sonic Youth's infamous album.
