77. The band started recording their self-titled debut in early 2002, during a very troubled period in Argentinian recent history, that was echoed on the lyrics of some of their songs. What was keeping the country in turmoil at the time?
From Quiz Carajo - Argentinian Band
Answer:
Severe economic crisis
In December 2001, Argentina entered a severe economic and social crisis that had lasting effects on a whole generation. It was during that time that Carajo started writing new material for their debut, some of which dealt with the ongoing discontent of the people.
The best known of these songs is their first single, which explicitly stresses the difficult situation the country was going through (the title includes profanity, so I won't give it here). The song is a full Nu Metal piece, complete with minimalistic guitar riffs in the verses, coupled with Corvalan's rapping, an explosive, heavy, chorus, and a melodic bridge.
Other songs in this theme were "Resistiendo con Ideas" ("Resisting With Ideas") and "Mal Popular" ("People's Sickness").
