Buenos Aires indie-rockers El Mató a un Policía Motorizado have their own sound, but they've been called a Latin-version of the Ramones -- and Rolling Stone Magazine, the Latin American Music Conference festival (LAMC) and their fans have taken notice.

Fresh off of its performance at the 15th annual LAMC festival in New York City in July, El Mató continues to make a splash on the indie music scene. While at the highly anticipated music conference, the band received the prestigious "Artist Discovery" award, an accolade that has previously been a launching pad for top musicians, including Latin Grammy Award-winning, Mexican-American indie-singer and composer Carla Morrison, Mexican alternative and electronica band Kinky, and indie band Astro from Santiago, Chile.

Last week, El Mató expanded its reach with the release its video for "Mas o Menos Bien."

Influenced by the Pixies, Weezer, Sonic Youth, the Ramones and the Velvet Underground, El Mató also draws Built to Spill and La Bien Querida fans to its music, which "combines punk rock with noise rock and distorted guitars," otherwise known as "lo-fi noise," a degraded sound and spin on a genre reboot from the '80s.

El Mató's music has generated a lot of buzz both in the U.S. and abroad -- Rolling Stone Magazine in Mexico, Argentina and Spain collectively chose the Latin alternative rock band offering as one of the 10 best albums of 2012.

Their style of music has been called "ambitious and bold" by Rolling Stone (Mexico).

The band describe its music as "Highway guitars and indelible melodies. Emotional outbursts of truth and beauty. Bricks of harmony and friendship cemented with distortion."

El Mató, which hails from La Plata, Buenos Aires, Argentina consists of Santiago Motorizado (bass and vocals), Doctura Muerte (drums), Pantro Puto (guitar), Niño Elefante (guitar) and Chatrán Chatrán (keyboards).

"Their first LP was 'El Mató a Un Policia Motorizado' (2004). In 2005 the band begins to release the trilogy depicting the birth, life and death, with a serie of EPs: 'Navidad de Reserva,' 'Un millon de euros' (2006) and 'El Día de los Muertos' (2008)," according to South by Southwest. "The band started a tour called El Nuevo Magnetismo, which took the band to tour for entire Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay, Chile, Paraguay, Spain, France and Germany, playing in big festivals like Primavera Sound in Barcelona, Porão do Rock in Brasilia, Indie Fest in Rio de Janeiro and Personal Fest in Buenos Aires."

El Mató released its last album "Dinastia Scorpio" in November of 2012 and received a welcome reception with rave reviews in South American publications.

"In 2014 we continue with our tour Dynasty Scorpio. This year we will show you new videos and pieces of art that will slowly unveil the mystery of the Dynasty Scorpio," the band said.

In April, the band played at Lollapalooza in Buenos Aires and the SOS festival in Murcia, Spain, in May. The band also kicked off a new tour in Spain and France.

"We hope to continue to tour Argentina Dynasty Scorpio and present everywhere," the band wrote on its Facebook page.
