Procésalo Todo (album)
Sinergia ( Spanish for ''Synergy'') is a Chilean band that plays experimental rock with influences from alternative metal, a style that themselves define as "birdy metal" by the incorporation of "pajaronas" (birdy) lyrics; which is Chilean slang referring to people that are a bit vague or slow to understand. Sinergia mixes a strong rock sound with an electronic bass, funk bass lines, and special sounds for each song. The band is known for mixing genres into unusual combinations. For example, ''Jefe'' contains elements of both ska and alternative metal. Their lyrics (sung in Chilean Spanish) focus on common elements of daily life and often take on a comedic or irreverent tone. Their songs have covered topics such as how to love a chubby woman, trying to win a contest, and personal relationships one has with a spouse or a boss. History Sinergia was formed in 1994, when they began composing their own songs inspired by groups like The Beatles, Faith No More, Primus, Mr. Bun ...
