Uno

The Uno by La Ley, released in February 2000, marked a turning point for the Chilean band. After the departure of Rodrigo Aboitiz and Luciano Rojas, the group continued as a trio, adding Archie Frugone for the bass parts on the recording. This album moved away from the darker and more experimental sound of previous works like Vértigo or Invisible, leaning towards a more direct Alternative Rock. The recording, which took place at the end of 1999, resulted in a fresh and accessible sound, with Humberto Gatica on production.

About the album

Uno, according to DoReSol

A key piece on this album is Amor y fe, a song that connects with the band's roots. Its origin dates back to 1990, during the sessions for Desiertos, and it was written with Andrés Bobe, being his last contribution to La Ley's material. The album also generated several singles that resonated with the audience, such as Aquí, Fuera de mí, and Eternidad. In fact, Aquí had significant international projection by being performed at the Miss Universe pageant in 2001, an event that was broadcast worldwide.

The impact of Uno was notable, especially in the United States, where it consolidated La Ley's fanbase. This work earned them the Grammy Award for Best Latin Rock/Alternative Album and reached number 41 on the Billboard Top Latin Albums chart. With a total duration of 48:32, the album became a benchmark in the Spanish rock scene of the era, demonstrating the band's ability to evolve and connect with new audiences.
