Tripi JB is a Spanish-language heavy metal band that is based in Puerto Rico. It was originally founded in Madrid, and has been well known in the underground scene of Spain, New York and Puerto Rico for over twenty years. == Biography== The band was founded in Pamplona in July 1990 by bass player Manolo Serrano (Snupi), drummer Jose Joaquin Correa (Pepino) and guitar player Luis (Tripi) Vicente. They were underground musicians coming from different bands like "Chinatown" and "Kie-13" with the idea of creating a powerful Hard rock band back in Madrid, where they all resided. They started playing in Madrid's Usera neighborhood and soon they were known for their strong language and quasi-punk shows on stage. They claimed to be influenced by Spanish heavy metal bands of the day, such as Extremoduro. (A frequent description for the band's sound is ''"rock puñetero"'', which loosely translates to "motherfucking rock".) Two years later (1992) singer Jorge Guzman Mendez joined the band and they started playing softer hard rock music, close to Deep Purple and David Coverdale styles. In 1993 they were semi-finalists in the "Villa de Madrid" rock contest. In that same year the band performed live at Madrid's Revolver Club along the band Grass. At this instance the band recorded their first work, "JB en Revolver Club (Directo 1993)". In 1994 the band incorporated virtuoso wild guitar player Francisco Gomez (Pako Demonio) when Tripi moved to the United States leaving a guitar vacancy. They continued to play in Madrid, leading to a much harder style, close to the style of the band Motörhead. Guzmán then left the band. After Tripi's coming back in 1997, the band kept both guitar players, Tripi started to sing, but never played on stage. However, they recorded their first studio album "Tarde, Mal y Nunca" with little production and scarce means, but with their most famous songs (as time would prove) like "El Hijo de Puta", "Animal", and "Borratxo". After this work, Tripi permanently left Spain. The accidental death of Snupi in an automobile accident in 1999 brought Tripi back to Spain temporarily, bringing some published old live recordings from the band: the work "los conciertos de JB". This work was edited and published in the new record label Tripirecords, and shows "never seen before" live recordings of the band from 1990 to 1992. This same year, they performed a Manolo tribute concert in the famous Vallecas Heavy metal lounge "El Killer". This concert was also recorded and published the same year "Konzierto Etíliko". Tripi continued making studio records like "San Fermín '99" to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the band, and just one year later, Pako Demonio traveled to New York to record with Tripi another work, "Mala Yerba Nunca Muere". This record contained reflective songs about life and death and even displayed flamenco style in some of the songs. In 2001, Tripi went back to Spain just to record the work "Konsixtente (Ruta 69)" and the very next year brought his friend Andy Toomey to perform with the band in a three concert tour around Madrid. The performances were recorded and published under the name "Kon Uno No Baxta (Doble Direzto 2002)". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tripijb」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
