'SEPULTURA' Kids Featured On Front Page Of Argentina's Biggest Newspaper

October 21, 2006

The Argentinian band of kids whose rendition of the SEPULTURA classic "Refuse/Resist" was used by BLABBERMOUTH.NET in a spoof news story about a SEPULTURA reunion was featured on the front page of today's (Saturday, October 21) edition of Clarín, the biggest newspaper in Argentina. According to YouTube.com, the group's "Refuse/Resist" clip has been viewed more than 1.3 million times so far.

The unnamed band of brothers, which unofficially goes by the moniker "GAUCHOS SALTA", is based in the Argentinian state of Salta, which is located in the north, near the Bolivian border. The members of the group are:

Bass: Martin Jorge (10 years old)
Drums: Agustin Jorge (11)
Guitar: Emilio Jorge (14)

According to the Clarínarticle, the band shot the video because their father wanted it to be shown on "Showmatch", an Argentinian TV program. But the clip never aired, so he decided to put it on the Internet instead.

According to the article, the family is very poor. They are now getting calls from all over the world.

To check out the "Refuse/Resist" video, as well as the band's cover of IRON MAIDEN's "Hallowed be thy Name", go to this location.
