Description

• Rock pesado y psicodelia (1995-2020)

 

In the early 1990s, in the hot desert of California, a band called Kyuss led a movement that spawned a new genre of music that combined heavy rock and psychedelia with high levels of distortion, which they dubbed stoner. Almost at the same time, thousands of kilometers away, in Buenos Aires, a group of musicians founded Los Natas, which took that raw sound as an influence and proposed an urban and pampas version. They were the beacon of a generation, they encouraged many others to join this self-managed and independent adventure and achieved what seemed unattainable: taking their sound on tour around the world, becoming one of the most famous Argentine bands outside their country. This book tells how that seed planted, literally, in the middle of the desert, flourished and bore fruit in a concrete jungle through the testimonies of members of Los Natas, Poseidotica, Dragonauta, Taura, Sick Porky, Buffalo, Smoke from Cairo, Banda de la Muerte, Sutrah and Sauron, among others, who forged the stoner movement and the renewal of heavy music in Argentina at the beginning of the 21st century.
