Los Prisioneros
Los Prisioneros was a Chilean rock band formed in San Miguel, Santiago, Chile in 1982 by Jorge González (bass & vocals), Claudio Narea (guitar) and Miguel Tapia (drums). They began as a local band during the early 1980s, playing small shows in their neighborhood and high school. After selling a limited press number of their first album in Chile under the independent Fusión producciones label, they signed to EMI in 1985, re-releasing the same album on an LP record and Cassette. From that point on they reached mainstream success in Chile, then Peru, Ecuador and Colombia.

After selling a limited press number of their first album in Chile under the independent Fusión producciones label, they signed to EMI in 1985, re-releasing the same album on an LP record and Cassette. From that point on they reached mainstream success in Chile, then Peru, Ecuador and Colombia. Eventually in the early 90's their albums were re-released completely in remastered Compact Disc form, this is when Chile was no longer run by a military regime which oppressed their music in the late 1980s. Throughout the 1990s their music spread out, reaching all of South and Central America as well as some parts of the U.S., Canada and Europe.
The band started when Jorge González and Miguel Tapia decided to start their own band while being high school students. They were inexperienced but enthusiastic, after many practices and writing songs, they asked Claudio Narea if he would like to join them, and impressed by the music they were making, he accepted. Towards the early 80's they went through some name changes and before settling on "Los Prisioneros" they had the name "Los Vinchukas" as their original name. In 1983, they had played a number of local shows and that's when they met Carlos Fonseca, their future manager. Through him, they managed to score a record deal with Fusión Producciones.
In 1984, the band's debut album was released, with the hit song "La Voz De Los '80" (which was never a single). They reached acclaim in the radio and by the next year they would be touring. In 1986, their long awaited second album "Pateando Piedras" went double Platinum album in Chile. By that time, the group was invited to perform at Argentina's Chateau Rock Festival and later to a similar event in Montevideo, Uruguay. They continued touring and they became more successful mainstream wise.
The band disbanded in 1992, then as a quartet with additional members Cecilia Aguayo (keyboards) and Robert Rodríguez (guitar), since Claudio Narea had left the band earlier in 1990.
The original lineup of the band decided to get back together in 2001, offering two massive concerts in the National Stadium of Santiago, and then releasing "Los Prisioneros", their first original studio album in 13 years. However, internal problems between González and Narea led again to the departure of the guitarist in 2001. Los Prisioneros continued working as a duet with guest members like Álvaro Henríquez whom with they released a cover album. In 2004 two additional musicians joined the band: Sergio "Coty" Badilla and Gonzalo Yáñez, releasing their sixth album Manzana the same year. A little while after the release of the album band members decided to establish themselves in Mexico, attempting to get more international exposure. Yáñez decided not to leave Chile and left the band. After touring through several locations in North and South America, they finally disbanded in 2006.

Tren Al Sur
Los Prisioneros Lyrics
Siete y media en la mañana
Mi asiento toca la ventana
Estación central, segundo carro
Del ferrocarril que me llevará al sur
Ya estas fierros van andando
Y mi corazón esta saltando
Porque me llevan a las tierras
Donde al fin podré de nuevo
Respirar adentro y hondo
Alegrías del corazón, a ha ha
Y no me digas pobre
Por ir viajando así
No ves que estoy contento
No ves que voy feliz
Dos y media en la mañana
El olor se mete en la ventana
Son flores y mis animales
Que me dicen bienvenido al sur
Yo recuerdo a mi papito
Y no me importa estar solito
Porque me llevan a las tierras
Donde al fin podré de nuevo
Respirar adentro y hondo
Alegrías del corazón
Respirar adentro y hondo
Alegrías del corazón
Y no me digas pobre
Por ir viajando así
No ves que estoy contento
No ves que voy feliz
Viajando en este tren
En este tren al sur
Y no me digas pobre
Por ir viajando así
No ves que estoy contento
No ves que voy feliz
Viajando en este tren
En este tren al sur
Tren al sur
Tren al sur
Tren al sur
Tren al sur
Tren al sur
Tren al sur
Tren al sur
Tren al sur
Tren al sur
Tren al sur
Tren al sur
Tren al sur

"el Rock, el género musical de la rebeldía y la inconformidad por antonomasia" ... ud disculpe, pero el rock es lo mas comercial y manoseado que existe, en los 80's, (al contrario que hoy que podes hacer un disco en tu casa) el acceso a grabar en calidad decente era casi imposible contando con poco dinero.
Apenas el establishment se dio cuenta, se apropio de los símbolos, la cultura, la imagen, el mensaje y lo desvirtuó. Se dedico a venderles estampitas y videos musicales, merchandising y basura
Quizas vos eras de las personas que buscaban rebelarse, pero te informo que tus contemporáneos son los creadores de la manga de descerebrados que ahorita estan meta Reaggeton y MUEVE EL TRASERO MAMI, MUEVELO. Si estamos como estamos no es por los jovenes, justamente es por la crianza de los padres de esos jóvenes ... JOVENES DE LOS 80 y 90 justamente.
Asi que no hay gloria, ni pena en "ser ochentero" ... yo naci en 1988, entiendo tu punto, pero al mismo tiempo déjame decirte que la batalla estaba perdida desde que empezo. Tu rebelion fue el reflejo de la opresion, la opresion fue casi perfecta porque convirtio en ovejas a toda esa generacion. No hace falta ni siquiera un discurso politico, ni una conspiracion, tampoco es necesario el respeto, pueden meternos mierda por los medios que los consumimos igual, no nos ofende la razon o la inteligencia ese tipo de Arte y Artistas VACIOS. ... y ahi esta la cosa: Cualquiera que se quiera, se hace valer, no deja que le falten el respeto ... y nosotros estamos muy pasados de ese punto.
Por otro lado tu falta de Fé es perturbadora; de donde sacas tu que no existen " representantes firmes y sólidos de ideales y sentimientos de identidad compartidos por toda una juventud latina e hispa". Levantas una piedra y salen 20 artistas con mensajes increibles, y todo eso al alcance de un click. Yo no creo que la diversidad sea dañinna, al contrario, eso es justamente lo que faltaba, si vos tenes esos idolos no es por el mensaje, es por su comercializacion. Antes si comercializabas y tenias bajada de linea discografica podrucias un efecto de eclipsado sobre todos los demas artistas.
Ahora ya no puede pasar eso, la libre distribucion y el libre acceso a la data les quito ese poder a las disqueras, que si bien siguen haciendo bajada de linea ya no pueden de la misma forma que atraves de la TV.
Internet nos salva de la tirania, que seamos muy estupidos como para usarlo correctamente es otra cosa, (si, tambien sirve para distraer..) Internet es una fuente de libertad, los programas de codigo abierto y el libre acceso a la data es la ultima y mas poderosa herramienta que tenemos
