Cucarachón de tribunal

This song, Cucarachón de tribunal, is one of those pieces that, although not the best-known in the repertoire of Los Abuelos de la Nada, has its own charm and a story behind it worth exploring. It was part of Vasos y besos, their second studio album, released in 1983. The production of that album was handled by the band themselves, which always allows for special freedom to shape the sound as they please.

The album Vasos y besos, where Cucarachón de tribunal is found, received significant recognition. It was included in lists of essential albums, such as that of the North American magazine Al Borde, which ranked it 199th out of the 250 fundamental albums of Ibero-American rock. On the other hand, Rolling Stone highlighted it at number 29 of the 100 best Argentine rock albums. Although Mil horas, another song from the same album, captured a large part of the hit rankings, Cucarachón de tribunal contributes to the overall atmosphere of a work that marked a key moment for the band. The duration of this piece is 3 minutes and 28 seconds.
