Their first record, “LOS PERICOS” released in 1988 was the best selling album of the year, obtaining Triple Platinum Award for its 180 thousand units sold.
One year later, they recorded KING KONG, produced by Herbert Vianna (OS PARALAMAS DO SUCESSO). Immediately after, they launched Maxi ANFITREU, a vinyl disc that impacted because of its unique style.
In 1990 LOS PERICOS launched their third studio record RAB A DAB STAIL and they went on tour, performing several live concerts around Argentina, highlighting the two shows at the LUNA PARK Stadium in Buenos Aires.
Their 4th album, BIG YUYO, was launched in 1993. In it PERICOS, showed a strongly predominant musical sound reflecting their own identity with songs such as: ME LATE, WAITIN, HACE LO QUE QUIERAS, etc. They caused a surge of popularity across Latin America countries chartering successfully.
That same year LOS PERICOS were invited to participate in the 6th INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL REGGAE SUNSPLASH Edition, taking place annually in JAMAICA.

The presentation of MYSTIC LOVE was on AUGUST 31st and September 1st at the OPERA THEATRE, both performances were absolutely SOLD OUT without having the opportunity to add shows due to the theatre’s lack of available dates.
In November they started the 5th Mystic Love Tour including the cities of NEW JERSEY, QUEENS, MANHATTAN and MONTREAL. That was the first time an Argentinean band reached this Canadian City and obtained stunning reviews in TORONTO, where they presented a very hot show in spite of low temperature.

In 2004, the Argentinean band with 17 years of successful path, surprised its fans by changing their vocal scheme; with Juanchi Baleiron switching from lead guitar to vocals.
With a completely fresh approach, fuelled by the beginning of a new stage of change and challenge, they presented a live show with a more compact scheme, reinforcing their reggae-rock format.
More than two million records were sold and 1600 live shows performed, rocketing LOS PERICOS as one of the MOST IMPORTANT BANDS in the history of LATIN REGGAE/ROCK.
In August 2005 the band released its new album called "7" with performances across Latin America.

The lyrics of Los Pericos's song Desorden describe a chaotic and wild party that leaves a lasting impression on everyone who attends. The beginning of the song has an upbeat and energetic tone, as the singer describes the arrival of someone (presumably the party host) with the exclamation "Flash!" The lyrics suggest that this arrival marks the start of a road trip or journey, as the singer references a "viaje de ruta de ida" (one-way road trip).
As the song progresses, the singer describes the party in more detail. The party takes place on "dieciseis" (sixteenth street), and the host has arranged a carnival that "nadie va a olvidar" (no one will forget). The party is full of "desorden" (disorder), which seems to be a positive thing in this context, as the singers emphasize the word and repeat it throughout the song. The chaos and disorder of the party seem to suggest a sense of freedom and spontaneity, with the singer describing the partygoers as smoking, drinking, and dancing.
The song's chorus repeats the word "desorden" several times over a catchy rhythm, creating a sense of excitement and frenzy. Overall, the lyrics of Desorden celebrate the joy and freedom of wild parties, encouraging listeners to let loose and embrace the chaos.
