Background


Puya formed in Puerto Rico as a progressive rock combo[2] under the name Whisker Biscuit in 1991.[1] Upon relocating to Florida, the band changed its name to Puya, after a popular type of coffee.[1]

The band's self-titled debut album was released in 1995 by Noiz Boiz Records.[1] A subsequent Billboard review identified the band as being unsigned as of 1996.[1] The band's lineup on this album consisted of guitarist Ramon Ortiz and bassist Harold Hopkins Miranda.[1] Following the release of the album, Sergio Curbelo became the band's lead singer in 1996.[1]


Reception


The album received favorable notice from Billboard which described the band as "unpredictably compelling", and the song "Bembele" as containing "amazing leaps from percolating Afro-Caribbean rock to crunching thrash to syncopated blues-laced rock"[1]
