Its founders were Sebastián Teysera (lead vocals, frontman and main songwriter), Nicolás Lieutier (bass guitar) and Santiago Butler (guitar) - all three are still part of the band today. The band's first appearance as La Vela Puerca was in a montevidean street party in December 24, 1995. By then, several new members had already joined in. In 1996, frontman Sebastián Teysera presented a demo tape to a band contest. The rest of the band did not become aware of this until they found out they were one of the twenty finalists. A month later, they recieved a phone call saying they had won, and with this they were given 80 hours of free recording session which would be vital for their debut album.
La Vela Puerca released four albums: Deskarado (1998)(1999 released in Europe as "La Vela Puerca"), De Bichos Y Flores (2001), A Contraluz (2004)and El Impulso (2007).
In Germany they're well-known since they've played with Die Ärzte in Germany and Uruguay. In 2006 they're touring again in Europe.

La Vela Puerca Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
¿Dónde irá a pisar, esta vez?
¿Sobre que baldosa llorar, para poder vomitar, lo que le dijo una vez?
¿Por qué ya no puede volar?
(le tiene agarrado los pies)
algún día, lo va a soltar
¡y luego se va a estrellar!
contra lo que debe ser…
Será porque no quiere compartirla con el miedo..
Será que hoy, su dado, no quiere tirar de nuevo
¡Y a reventar!
hasta que ya no quede, ni una parte..
Me dijo ayer
ya no quiere robarte y menos darte…
¿Dónde mierda esta la verdad?
(se esconde adentro de su piel)
Lo saluda la sin-razón, detrás de su corazón, queda un poquito de miel..
Se para a pedir otra más
(la burbuja ciega su sed)
y con un toque de piedad, busca dentro de su edad
como salir otra vez.
The lyrics in La Vela Puerca's song La Sin Razón reveal a sense of confusion and frustration as the singer questions where his friend's "sun" or happiness has gone. The friend seems to be trapped by fear, unable to fly and escape the constraints holding him back. The singer wonders why his friend can no longer "fly" and suggests that fear may be holding him down. The friend doesn't want to share the truth, which is hiding underneath his exterior. He drinks to blind his thirst and finds solace in pity, searching for a way to escape the cycle of fear and uncertainty.
The lyrics suggest that the friend may be struggling with addiction or other personal demons, and the singer laments their inability to help. The sense of hopelessness is palpable as the singer sees the friend's inevitable crash and burn. The friend's addiction or fear weighs him down, and his reality becomes distorted. The singer asks, "donde mierda esta la verdad?" or, "where the f*** is the truth?" There is a sense of desperation as the singer tries to connect with his friend and find a way to help, but it appears that the friend is too far gone.
Overall, the song highlights the struggle that many people face when dealing with addiction, fear, or other personal demons. It's a poignant reminder of how these struggles can weigh someone down and impact their ability to enjoy life fully.

Luego de 11 años sigo pensando que es el mejor tema de todos
guza Nero
Con estas canciones no se necesita de rock gringo solo hace falta apoyar el rock latino
Yumbo Max
Desnudar el sin razón
Que modeló nuestras vidas
Parece ser causa perdida
Nadie apuesta detener
El motor que contamina
El aire que a diario respiras
Y que respiraste ayer
Y que mañana tal vez, no lo sé
Por eso hoy
Reflexionando en esto
La madrugada pasó
Y dejó otro día para ser..
