Buenos Aires, Argentina's Capsula make the kind of psychedelic garage-rock that seems perfectly suited to the the madcap atmosphere that pervades the annual South By Southwest Music Festival in Austin, Texas. Their songs have enough grit and urgency to match the frantic, sleepless atmosphere of the festival, but they also have enough well-crafted hooks to stand out above the din created by the dozens of other bands playing within earshot. Seattle's KEXP was on hand to capture their scuzzy glam rock as they played the Day Stage Cafe during this year's SXSW festival.
