A Spanish punk group from the 1970s whose outspoken lyrics and energetic sound defined a generation.
For a quick sense of their sound, try "Bang Bang" or "Bandejitas, Latas Y Paquetes." They're both classic examples of how the band blended punk urgency with sharp, unflinching lyrics.
They formed in the Basque Country during a tense political period in Spain, and their music mixed punk with rock and ska. Songs like "Bang Bang" became staples because they tackled social and political issues head-on, facing censorship for it. Their direct style, heard on records from "Salve" to "Carne para la Picadora," gave voice to frustrations without pulling punches.
The band started in the mid-1970s with Evaristo Páramos on vocals and released their first album "Salve" in 1984. Over more than twenty studio albums, including "No Somos Nada" and "Revolución," they kept a steady lineup until changes like Txiki leaving in 1991. They toured and recorded consistently, maintaining that raw, critical energy through tracks like "Lady Chaterly" and "10 Perritos."
