Style

Their first album, ¿Cuándo se come aquí?, features very short songs, with a marked punk style. In the second one, Siniestro Total II: El Regreso, songs are essentially punk, but more instruments come to play. In the third one, Menos mal que nos queda Portugal, the punk evolves to a more classical rock, although lyrics are still punk. In the fourth one, Bailaré sobre tu tumba the rock style continues. The fifth and sixth ones, De hoy no pasa and Me gusta cómo andas, the rock is still softer, becoming power-pop, whereas the lyrics continue being punk in essence.
The seventh, En beneficio de todos, they get back to rock, and lyrics evolve and become more complex. The eighth and ninth ones, Made in Japan and Policlínico miserable, feature a harder rock, the rock is softer. They make an unexpected turn in their eleventh album, La historia del blues, and they play blues, with lyrics based in someone else's work. With the twelfth one, Popular, democrático y científico, they return to rock, with a style close to grunge.
