Rostro del Sol was founded in 2018 in Mexico City by guitarist Mitch Bálänt. The band’s sound is characterized by a hybrid of blues, heavy psych, jazz, and progressive rock. Their primary goal is to one day use their music to help humanity.

»Universo 25« is a fully instrumental piece that expands the sonic horizons of Rostro del Sol. In this release, the band dives into a rich blend of influences, ranging from Italian symphonic progressive rock to jazz rock and pure psychedelia.

Built upon a foundation of constant improvisation and jamming, the track allows each instrument to explore complex textures without losing the vibrant essence and signature sound that defines Rostro del Sol. It is an auditory journey where virtuosity and creative freedom meet in every bar.
