Los Buitres de Culiacan have garnered an enormous audience for their gritty "alterna movimiento" brand of norteño music, offering provocative narcocorridos and bittersweet, often explicit love songs. The quartet (singer and accordionist Eduardo Sánchez Reyes, guitarist Eulogio Jesus Sosa, bassist Juan Carlos Ochoa, and percussionist Luis Gerardo Sanchez) came together in Culiacan, Sinaloa, Mexico. They began playing for other kids in their neighborhood, then at local celebrations from weddings to birthdays, and finally in clubs.
In 2010, the band issued Asociacion Antrax, which boasted the hit "Corazon Polito" as well as subterranean singles such as "Demonios Empecherados," "Sexo en la Troca," and the anthemic "Los Nuevos Terroristas." They also collaborated with El Komander (Alfredo Rios) on the hit single "Corrido Tamrindo," and also dropped the full-lengths Corazón de Pollito and Los Buitres con Tololoche.
Que Role la Bolsita was reissued in 2011 due to audience demand, as was the new recording Armandos Hasta el Tronco. In an unexpected move, Los Buitres switched gears and issued a collection of songs by the late narcocorrido singer and songwriter Chalino Sanchez entitled Tributo al Mas Grande Chalino Sanches: Lo Mejor de Ayer, Hoy y Siempre. This set included the hit "Gallo de Sinaloa."
It was right back to work on their own material in 2013. The pre-release single "Borracho de Amor" was issued in January, followed by the full-length Simplemente Buitres in March, the live En Vivo Desde Culiacan, Vol. 2 in August, and the high-charting, pre-release single, "Mejor Soltero" (and its hit video) for Territorio Buitres, which was released in January of 2014.
