Los Laser
Vuelven!
Discos Quilombo is back with its second release, and what a killer one!!! Bolivian group Los Laser!!! It took ages to finally locate the Laser guys in La Paz but it can't be more worth than this and you can read their story in the 4-page full-colour insert. They were part of the so-called "Bolivian New Wave" where local teens were emulating the British groups of the mid-'60s, but their music turned as furious as their minds (they were deeply involved in political activities, even joining an armed organization fighting against Bolivian dictatorships). With biting lyrics and outstanding fuzz guitar riffs, they recorded the awesome social anthem 'Los Desposeídos' which was part of their only EP released in 1971. Now you can get the two best tracks of that EP on the new Discos Quilombo single.
