With a sound that is a balanced blend of electronic, acoustic and rock guitar music, Lucybell has been compared to Blur, Catherine Wheel and Radiohead. Their critically acclaimed debut, Peces, won them the Best New Group award from the Chilean Association of Entertainment Journalists (APES). 1996s Viajar launched the band to international fame, with the several singles in rotation on MTV and tours that took them to Mexico, the U.S. and Colombia. Lucybell put together their own studio to record their eponymous third album, which they then took to Buenos Aires to mix and to Londons Abbey Road Studios to master with engineer Chris Blair (The Beatles, Radiohead).
The success of the bands fourth studio album, Amanece, clinched their position as one of the most important Latin rock bands in Chile and Latin America, and their live album and DVD, Sesión Futura, along with the Sálvame la vida EP, earned them the Best Group APES award in 2003.
Lucybell is now the best-selling rock band in Chile. With six gold records and a large and faithful fan base, this trio is poised to take on the world.
In keeping with their desire to reach a larger audience, Lucybell moved to Los Angeles, California in April, 2003. They spent the following months composing new material in their Burbank rehearsal studio, and during that time met British sound engineer Adam Moseley (Roxette, The Cure, Kiss). Moseley shared the bands vision of their new sound, so they chose him to produce the new albums first single, recorded and mixed at the Dust Brothers studio The Boat.
Sálvame La Vida was released as an EP in Chile as Lucybell began work on the rest of the album. Lucybell recorded and mixed 12 more songs at The Boat with Moseley, completing the process at the end of 2003. The album reveals an at once more mature and more experimental sound. Guitarist / vocalist Claudio Valenzuela's elegant lyrics and bassist/keyboardist Eduardo Caces' intensive production efforts complete the bands new sound: Lúmina.
Cote Foncea joined the band in 2005, he has a long time relation with Claudio and Eduardo so it was very easy to set the band up, touring all around America immediately. Peru, Ecuador, Argentina, Mexico, Uruguay, Colombia and USA have been regular stops on Lucybell's Touring Schedule.
After almost a year playing live shows, the band started producing and recording (in Estudios Foncea - Chile and panda Studios - Argentina) their 8th Studio album called Comiendo Fuego. This was coproduced with long time friend and producer Adam Moseley. The album went number one in Chilean Charts and was a great star for a complete year of touring and promoting.
The band moved to Mexico City and between 2006 and 2007 they completed a new EP called Primitivo. Six songs and heavy rock mood was the result of the band's 9th Production. Cote, Claudio and Eduardo took care of the production and composing. It was recorded in Chile (Estudios Foncea) and Mixed in Mexico (Jarpa Estudios).
2008 have been a very busy year for the band. They recorded a live show, two days in a recording studio with 200 people per show, 9 cameras, lot of energy, great music, 13 live songs, 2 new studio songs, 4 month post production. Produced by Lucybell, Executive Production by Cote Foncea, Christian Rojas and Pablo Ayala and Directed by Los Felipes (Felipe Foncea and Felipe Sepulveda)... this is called SESION PRIMITIVA and it will be the second live album from Lucybell. It is going to be released in November of 2008 with simultaneous release in Chile, Mexico and Peru.

Lucybell Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tus piernas al fin
Logro descifrar
Que puedes ser más que un simple espejo
Cada vez que veo brincar
A mi alrededor
Tus labios sin voz
Logro entender que hay sólo un beso
Sólo al despertar
Cada vez que veo brillar
Tus piernas
Logro entender
Que puedes ser más, que puede ser más
Que un simple espejo
Sólo al despertar
Cada vez que veo brincar
A mi alrededor
Tus labios sin voz
Logro entender que hay sólo un beso
Sólo al despertar
Sólo un beso
Beso
Sólo un beso
Sólo al despertar
Si esto llegase a acabar
Si esto llegase a acabar
Ve mis ojos
Mírame directo a los ojos
Yo sabré mentir a Dios
Por verte hoy
Si esto llegase a acabar
Si esto llegase a acabar
Ve mis ojos
Mírame directo a los ojos
Yo sabré mentir a Dios
Por verte hoy
Si esto llegase a acabar
Si esto pareciese acabar
Mira mis ojos
Mírame directo a los ojos
Yo sabré mentir a Dios
Por verte hoy
Si esto llegase a acabar
Si esto se va, va
Mira mis ojos
Mírame directo a los ojos
Yo sabré mentir a Dios
Por verte hoy
Verte hoy
Verte hoy
Verte hoy
Hoy
The lyrics of Lucybell's song Mataz deal with the complexity of human relationships, particularly the confusion and uncertainty that can arise when trying to decipher the intentions and emotions of others. The repeated references to "brillar," or shining, suggest a sort of enigmatic allure that draws the singer in, but which they struggle to fully comprehend. The lines "Tus labios sin voz / Logro entender que hay sólo un beso" ("Your voiceless lips / I understand that there is only one kiss") convey a sense of nonverbal communication or unspoken desire, which is perhaps easier to intuit in a moment of intimacy than to articulate in words. The refrain "sólo al despertar" ("only upon waking") could suggest a sense of emotional clarity or realization that comes only after the fog of attraction or infatuation has lifted, leaving the singer to confront the true nature of their feelings and their situation.
The second half of the song takes a more desperate turn, as the singer imagines a scenario in which they might have to lie to God to be with the object of their desire. The lines "Yo sabré mentir a Dios / Por verte hoy" ("I will know how to lie to God / To see you today") suggest a willingness to sacrifice one's own morality or spiritual beliefs for the sake of love, further underscoring the intensity of the singer's feelings.
Overall, the lyrics of "Mataz" offer a poignant exploration of the complexities of human connection, highlighting the ways in which our desires, our fears, and our insecurities can blur our perception of the world around us and make it difficult to know whom to trust or how to navigate our relationships.

Super infravalorado Lucybell ... son unos íconos de la música chilena.
@rag83991
This is easily one of the best songs I have ever stumbled upon in my life. I've been listening to it for about 5 years now and it's just so strangely hypnotic and sensual. I never get tired of listening to it and I feel there is always something to dissect. Truly a fucking masterpiece. 11/10.
@ginoromo3801
La entiendes?
@rag83991
tarr xo entiendo las palabras pero la verdad no se de que habla... siento que es muy abstracto. Cuando habla de “si esto llega y se acaba... mírame directo a los ojos yo sabré mentir a dios por verte hoy.” Creo que habla de una ex novia que falleció en un accidente de avión , y que la quiere ver
@Internecanal
Si hipnótica es la palabra perfecta, estoy de acuerdo y chill.

Este fue el punto maximo de la industria musical chilena, el pais retornaba a la democracia en los 90s, terminando un apagon cultural de 2 decadas, las politicas libre mercadistas hicieron a Chile el pais mas atractivo para invertir en la region, fue el pais de mayor crecimiento economico de la region durante la decada, y en terminos de paridad, era el pais con mayores ingresos per capita..las disqueras como la EMI, BMG o Polygram invertian millones de dolares en fichar a los grupos que populaban la escena Santiaguina, ademas, los realizadores audiovisuales, tenian carta blanca para ofrecer sus "conceptos" a las discograficas y obtener buenos presupuestos para video clips. Los discos eran masterizados en estudios top en UK o USA, ingenieros de audio top mundiales como Barry Sage viajaban a Chile para grabar artistas, ademas, los artistas alternativos llegaban a obtener discos de platino sin problemas, todo era hermoso. Posteriormente llego el auge de la pirateria y el mp3 en el 99, ademas, de la crisis asiatica, y acabaron con todo. Para el año 2003 la industria chilena era un tercio de lo que fue el 1998. Lucybell fueron de las bandas que iniciaron y terminaron ese apogeo.
