El Morro of San Juan Video accompanied w Music of Revolución

Pics of Puerto Rico, great music--awesome.
They're listed on MySpace, I let them know of this video and haven't protested using this track. If they want me to remove it, now, their loss, but I will. (Sidenote: don't use music w/o permission in videos, then you lose all your sound when the "big guys" don't like it! They still come after you even when you make it private!) * Location: Bayamon, Puerto Rico, United States * Genre: Alternative/Punk » Post-Grunge

Biography

The dictionary defines Revolución, or Revolution, as a radical transformation in any order. It is from this definition that this band from the island of Puerto Rico takes it's name. In their beginnings, the singer and guitar player of the band (Miguel Rodríguez, b.1980) decided to learn to play guitar in 1993, when he was only 13 years
old, to form a band. The main reason he decided to do so was the lack of bands playing music which he truly liked. As time passed, he began to trust more his musical skills, so he started searching for members of his future band. The first person who expressed interest was his brother (Adenawar Rodríguez, b.1978), who started playing with an old, horribly sounding drumset which was later upgraded for one that sounded as they previously envisioned. After practicing together for about 8 months, exclusively songs by other bands, they decided to complete their sound by adding a bass guitar. They did not want just any bassist, but one who had the same line of musical ideas that they had. They started asking their friends if they knew someone who was trustworthy, played bass guitar and was interested in forming a band. Miguel had a friend who had told him a couple of times that her brother liked many of the bands which Miguel also liked. One day, she happened to tell him that her brother (Delio Figueroa, b.1978) played bass guitar. That day, October 25 of 1996, Miguel and Delio had a conversation in which they decided to meet and play music together, just to see what happened. On October 27 of that same year, the band today known as Revolución was oficially formed. In the year 2001, Julio Miranda
(b. 1980) replaced Adenawar on the drums and has become an integral part of the band. A musical production of limited release, finished in 1998, helped Revolución book various presentations in Puerto Rico. As they then noticed that progress kept pointing forward, it was decided to record a second production, made entirely by professionals. It took them about a year to complete the recording. This production includes seven songs, which are called About Anarchy, Today I'm Big, Chip-Chop, Hate, Is This The End?, Something and
Superficial Fantasies. This last production was released on February 9, 2002. The visual art of the CD itself was painted by Puerto Rican artist Jomary Ortega.
In March 2002, Revolucion's first music video was completed. The video is for the song Today I'm Big, which is one of the hits of the band. It was made entirely with 3D animation by Lemonade Studios, in Amsterdam. It is the first video of it's kind in all of Puerto Rico's history. Revolución played at the EAT'M conference in Las Vegas, Nevada.
In 2005, Revolución began production of their third recording, entitled "X", due to the tenth anniversary of the band. It was completed on December 28, 2006 and includes 14 tracks, entitled Captive, Epilogue, Fall, Farewell, Freedom, Generation, Lanzo, Media, My Own, No Life, Promise, Scream, The Patient and Who Will Save Us Now. Revolución currently continues to play in various places in the island of Puerto Rico, but they can be found usually in the capital, San Juan.
