Llegando los monos

When Sumo released Llegando los monos in 1986, they were already forging their own path in the Argentine music scene. This work, released under the CBS label (now Sony Music), became a key point in their discography. The recording had the peculiarity of being self-produced by the band, with Mario Breuer at the console as engineer and Walter Fresco in artistic direction. The sound they explore here follows the post-punk line, but with that very particular imprint that characterized Sumo, mixing energy and unique atmospheres.

About the album

Llegando los monos, according to DoReSol

From this album, one song resonated especially: "Los viejos vinagres". According to accounts, Luca Prodan himself acknowledged that the idea behind this track was to aim for broader success. The official presentation of Llegando los monos took place on an emblematic stage, the Estadio Obras Sanitarias, on August 9, 1986. That concert, moreover, was recorded on a 55-minute home video. The album, with its eleven tracks, includes pieces like "Estallando desde el océano", "Nextweek", and "Heroína", which are part of the album's sonic identity. The Rolling Stone list ranked it at #22 among the best Argentine rock albums.
