Metamorfosis - Rock With a Social Conscious
Click image for song
"Raza Indomable"


The reality of Ecuador's marginalized urban society is expressed in the rock music of Metamorfosis. Since 1992, this head-banging band from Quito has tried to generate social conscious and hope amongst its audience, questioning prevalent attitudes and pop lifestyles in each one of their songs.

Metamorphosis: a change or transformation that occurs in the physical as well as mental realms not limited to the individual but encompassing the whole. The name of the band speaks of rebels with a cause and a conscious, striving to promote change.

The band was officially formed in 1992 by students from San Fernando, a Dominican founded school in Quito. The current members are:

Juan Tapia (guitar and back-up vocals)
Lenin Estrella (guitar and lead vocals)
Ramiro Estrella (drums)
Roberto Estrella (bass and lead vocals)

Metamorfosis began as cover band playing songs from the 70's, 80's and 90's. In 1995, however, the band decided to make their own music. Their music was inspired by the painful Ecuadorian reality evident in their urban setting. The band is now considered one of the top rock groups of Quito.

Metamorfosis has produced two long playing CD's. From the band's most recent CD, Esperanza de Golpe, we present the song, "Indomitable Race." Enjoy.
