Ataraxia

The sound of Ataraxia, released in 2003, is a key piece for understanding Flou's proposal. From the beginning, the band positioned itself in the Nu Metal and Alternative Metal scene, with a clear influence from references like Deftones, Alice in Chains, and Incubus. This album, which contains twelve tracks, was recorded at a time when the group had already defined its sonic identity, marked by internal and stylistic changes that forged its distinctive character. The lineup that brought Ataraxia to life consolidated the path that Flou had begun to chart since its inception in Asunción, Paraguay, in the year 2000.

About the album

Ataraxia, according to DoReSol

Within Ataraxia, songs like Dejar Morir al Tiempo and Lado Oscuro are palpable examples of the energy and textures that define the album. Previous studio material, such as the demo Despertar released in late 2000, had already shown the band's ability to connect with the audience, selling out in a few months. This positive response encouraged Flou to continue exploring their sound, culminating in the production of Ataraxia, a work that reaffirmed their place in the Paraguayan music scene.

The recording and release of Ataraxia represented a firm step in Flou's trajectory. The album was conceived with a stable lineup that included Walter Cabrera, Bruno Ferreiro, Federico Wagener, Ariel Sandoval, and Ariel Insfrán, who had been working together since September 2000. This record became a reference point, showcasing the band's evolution and their ability to create compositions that resonated with an ever-growing audience.
