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.

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.

una vez mas
siempre a tu lado
voy a estar
Vos sos
mi unica verdad.
iluminas el camino a donde voy.
existe un sueño
Cada dia en la ciudad
arden historias
why la llama en mi corazon
sigue encendida
Cada dia no esta mal
si me deslizas
el sonido de tu voz.
why esperare...esperare
que el cielo tiemble.
En cada lugar
existe un sueño.
Hoy te acompaño
una vez mas
siempre a tu lado
voy a estar
Vos sos
mi unica verdad
iluminas el camino adonde voy
En cada lugar
existe un sueño
Cada dia en la ciudad
arden antorchas
why la llama en mi corazon
sigue encendida
cada dia no esta mal
si me deslizas
el sonido de tu voz
why esperare..esperare..
que el cielo tiemble
Tiemble
