A late-1970s Argentine band whose straightforward, aggressive playing avoided polish and helped shape the country's punk scene.
For a quick sense of their sound, 'Drulos' and 'La Juega' are good places to start. Both tracks have that straightforward, aggressive playing they were known for.
Their early records like the 1980 self-titled debut and 1981's 'Fuera de control' helped define Argentina's punk sound at a time when few were playing that style there. Songs like 'Drulos' and 'El Quieto' remained in circulation among punk listeners long after their initial run. In 2004, they were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Argentina.
Ultrageno formed in Buenos Aires in the late 1970s with Marcelo Pocavida on vocals, Juan Distéfano on guitar, Omar Marroco on bass, and Marcelo "Torta" Carbó on drums. They released several albums through the 1980s including 'Fuerza vital' in 1983, 'El grito del pueblo' in 1984, and 'Ciudad de nadie' in 1986.
