Album Notes & Community Reviews

Recorded using largely acoustic arrangements alongside a Roland TR-808 drum machine, 'Kamikaze' emerged during the twilight of Argentina's military dictatorship and the onset of the Falklands War. It compiles older, previously unrecorded compositions, presenting a deeply introspective, poetic atmosphere that stands as a vital cornerstone of the Argentine rock nacional movement.
