Grass (Boikot) rompe su silencio: 30 años aporreando la batería sin descanso

Grass, drummer for Boikot, sits down for the FIRST TIME in front of a camera for an in-depth interview with Made in Metal. The rhythmic engine of one of the longest-running bands in Spanish punk rock speaks candidly about "No Les Interesa" (They're Not Interested), the new album that breaks 12 years of recording silence, and reflects on three decades of touring, stages, and friendship. This conversation goes far beyond music. Grass relives the memories of the trip that changed everything—those concerts in Havana in 1997 where Boikot almost broke up—reveals what it's like to record after so long away from the studio, and shares the philosophy of life of someone who has made punk a way of being in the world. From the power duo Quantica to the cult album Ciudadano X with Jesús Arispón, including the homemade double bass pedal welded to a car accelerator and the legendary phrase "work, work, work, because I can't even work at my job." ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 — Cold Open: Grass and Tony talk about Ciudadano X 0:41 — Welcome: sharing wine, memories of Elsa 1:07 — Grass's 3 bands: Boikot, Cuántica, and Barra Libre 1:33 — 32 years in Boikot (since September 1994) 1:38 — Cuántica: the power metal duo with Rocker Domínguez 3:08 — "No Les Interesa": Costa as main composer and producer 3:51 — Boikot's musical evolution: each album is different 4:28 — The Che Guevara Route: Mexico, Cuba, Argentina — the turning point 5:27 — The band Grass: alternative and funky rock (pre-Boikot) 6:05 — ⭐ Ciudadano X: "a fantastic album, a cult classic" produced by Jesús Arispón 7:33 — Analog recording with Arispón Kilios 9:04 — ⭐ How the Che Guevara Route was born: "the best ideas come from bars" 10:46 — "You farts bigger than your asses" — nobody believed in the project 11:45 — If it had gone badly, Boikot wouldn't exist 13:07 — ⭐ "Holy shit, this is the Caribbean" — the heatwave upon arriving in Havana 14:26 — Micaela's House: Old Havana, across from the Capitol Building 17:27 — The 4 concerts in Havana: Pabellón Cuba, Patio María, Café Teatro, Festival 18:32 — La Piragua (Malecón): first concert, packed with people 18:52 — "I asked for water and they gave me hot water — they wanted to kill me!" 19:57 — The Punky of Havana 20:50 — They met Zeus, Aramís, Hansel, Iván, Yoyo 23:06 — Same lineup (Costa, Juancar, Alberto, Grass) since 1995 23:50 — Café Teatro Nacional: with Zeus and Soma Raza (Venezuelan band) 24:27 — They played in Venezuela at the 16th Festival 26:35 — ⭐ Aramís's transparent acrylic drum kit 26:53 — ⭐ The homemade double pedal: Tama pedal welded to a car accelerator 27:40 — Longa: "You're the fastest sunflower seed eater" 29:43 — ⭐ The argument that almost led to a boycott in Cuba 30:37 — Another similar argument in Tokyo years later 31:44 — Carrying water at Ana's house: "We're not tourists" 34:19 — Costa: "Please throw me some water!" — the neighbors staring at "some Galicians" 35:30 — ⭐ The Benny Hill sketch at the Photo Library — the director's anger over the Che Guevara photo 37:35 — Patio María was delayed: Juanjo demanded to sign to record 38:57 — Book "Direct Stories of Boikot" 39:48 — Tony in Madrid (2000): night at Grass's house 40:53 — ⭐ Sonora: Costa and Grass form the band — "Elemento Fuego" (2006) 41:06 — "Tus Problemas Crecen" (2004): Boikot's most metal album 43:03 — "Elemento Aire" (2011): egos destroyed Sonora 45:21 — ⭐ "Stop Censura": Tony's favorite song, theme song of the Made in Metal channel 46:11 — "You have the right to say something I don't agree with" "Okay" 47:45 — The accusation of "Tarra" — Christian lawyers, Willy Toledo 50:22 — 9 billion euros to the Church in a secular country 51:50 — "The 1978 regime: PP and PSOE, tied up tight" 52:52 — "Fuck Spain" 53:04 — 5-star hotel in Havana: they missed their flight in Varadero 54:14 — Tony entering the hotel "dressed up" 54:30 — The contrast: Cuban house vs. super-luxury hotel 55:09 — ⭐ "Work, work, work, I can't even work at my job" — LEGENDARY phrase 57:40 — Pool, food, "El Indio de Sabor" 59:21 — Closing: hugs, lasting friendship 1:00:27 — Grass's children: Gael and Daniela 1:01:12 — "The "A person is a person, regardless of race, creed, or religion." 1:02:01 — Final toast: "Cheers!" 1:02:09 — Made in Metal closing: "Let the good rock keep playing!" 🔥 If you're passionate about rock and metal, this channel is your home.
