Album Notes & Community Reviews

Considered a massive turning point for the Argentine underground, Fun People delivered an incredibly eclectic, highly melodic album with 'The Art(e) of Romance'[cite: 1]. The band bravely pushed far past their fast-paced hardcore roots, incorporating prominent acoustic guitars, bittersweet emo structures, and overtly progressive, highly conscious lyricism regarding LGBTQ rights[cite: 1].
