"Desatormentándonos" is the debut studio album by Argentine rock band Pescado Rabioso, released in 1972 under the label Microfon. This short but powerful album, lasting just over 30 minutes, features five tracks that blend the raw energy of blues rock with the progressive and hard rock elements that would become hallmarks of Pescado Rabioso's sound.
Formed after the dissolution of the influential band Almendra, Pescado Rabioso was the next creative chapter for the legendary Luis Alberto Spinetta. "Desatormentándonos" showcases Spinetta's distinctive voice and songwriting, with tracks like "Blues de Cris" and "Serpiente (Viaja por la Sal)" highlighting the band's ability to craft compelling, hard-hitting rock music. The album's title, which translates to "Untangling Ourselves," hints at the introspective and sometimes heavy themes explored within.
The album's brevity belies its impact, with each track contributing to a cohesive whole that has earned it a 4.4/5 average rating on platforms like Discogs. "Desatormentándonos" is a testament to Pescado Rabioso's innovative spirit and their significant contribution to the Argentine and Latin rock scenes. Whether you're a fan of blues rock, hard rock, or progressive rock, this album offers a rich and rewarding listening experience.
