Los Incas Modernos

Description

First time on vinyl. Los Incas Modernos hold a pioneering place in the history of Peruvian rock as the first band in the country to record a full-length album. Formed in the early 1960s, they developed a distinctive sound by blending the energy of surf rock with the musical traditions of the Andes. This album stands as a landmark in Latin American music. Tracks like 'Carnavalito' and 'Terremoto' showcase an innovative approach for their time, bringing together electric guitars and Andean influences to create a sound that was both original and ahead of its era. The album's success led the band to share the stage with some of Peru's leading rock groups (Los Shains, Los Belkings, Los Silvertones, Los Doltons...) while appearing on radio, television, and major venues across Lima-all before any of its members had turned twenty. Today, this reissue offers the opportunity to rediscover a defining chapter in Peruvian rock: an album that still captures the creativity, freshness, and spirit of a generation that forged its own musical identity and left a lasting legacy. This is a joint release with the Peruvian label Rey Record and includes an insert with notes on the band's history. Side A 1. Cree En Mi 2. Carnalavito 3. Twist Del Ultimo Verano 4.
