Entrevista con LOS PERICOS | 40 Años De Historia, Rock Argentino Y La Magia De Las Canciones

Los Pericos are one of the most important and influential bands in Latin America. Formed in Argentina in 1986, they have built a career spanning almost four decades, bringing reggae and Latin rock to stages across the continent and becoming icons for several generations thanks to songs that are now part of the history of Spanish-language music. In this episode of What is Music?, we talk with Juanchi Baleirón and Willy Rodríguez about the release of “Inmortal,” the meaning behind this new album, and the curious time capsule they prepared to preserve their legacy. We also reminisce about their first visits to Mexico, analyze why our country has been so important for the internationalization of Argentine rock, and reflect on the phenomenon of bands like Soda Stereo. In addition, we discuss how the music industry has changed since the 1980s, the impact of streaming, the democratization of music, artificial intelligence, nostalgia, the value of complete albums, and the challenges of staying together as a band for 40 years. A conversation filled with history, anecdotes, musical philosophy, and profound reflections on the present and future of music. #LosPericos #Immortal #ArgentineRock #Reggae #Music #Podcast #WhatIsMusic #JavierPaniagua #SodaStereo #Argentina #Mexico #MusicIndustry #Streaming #Albums #Composition #Songs #LatinRock #AbelPintos #Sabino #SonyMusic
