Capsula are an indie rock/garage rock band from Buenos Aires, Argentina. Their name is the Spanish word for capsule and derives from the David Bowie song "Space Oddity".

Influenced as much by '60s South American psychedelic rock as by garage, new wave, and electronica, they have released three albums in their native country, played festivals, and toured the United Kingdom, Europe, and South America. They played at SXSW 2008.

They recorded their fourth album, titled "Songs & Circuits", in 2006. The album was released January 16 2007 by Madrid-based indie label Discos Liliput.

A review of Capsula album "Songs & Circuits" described them as "garage rock for the 21st Century" reminiscent of The Stooges, The Velvet Underground and the early The Rolling Stones. Fact|date=July 2008

In March 2008 the group announced on their website that their second album will be released in Summer of 2008.
