 Opinions and other informations:

    

Why? Was born in Astorga (León) in late 1974. They played until 1981 and it was mainly hard rock surrounded by all the progressive ambient by that time in Spain. In January, 1981 they recorded in Caskabel studios in Trobajo del Camino (León), and produced by J. L. Fernandez de Cordoba, for Sonomusic, they released their only record. By the end of 1981 the band disolved, with a single and incomplete apearance in august 26, 1988, in the" Primer Encuentro de Musicos ASTORGA 88". Some of their songs have apeared in different compilations lately. (Julián León)
