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.
In 1994 they performed again in the INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL REGGAE SUNSPLASH and closed the WORLD BEAT NIGHT. Rita Marley invited them to the TUFF GONG RECORDS studios, where BOB MARLEY used to record.
That July, they enthusiastically embarked on a tour through the United States including the cities of Miami, New York, Los Angeles, Chicago and Boston, after finishing the recording of their 5th album in that country.
With the released of PAMPAS REGGAE, tours across Latin America and the sales of their records continued to increase.
Their sales reached more than one million copies worldwide.
Their 6th album, YERBABUENA, was released simultaneously in every country of LATIN AMERICA, the UNITED STATES and SPAIN.

On 27th of November 1998, they released MYSTIC LOVE and the videoclip of its first cut, SIN CADENAS.
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.
At the beginning of 2000, LOS PERICOS gave a show at RIVER PLATE STADIUM celebrating THE NEW MILENIUM for an audience of 75,000 people.
LOS PERICOS began mixing a new album, a tribute to the 1008 shows performed until such time, called: 1000 VIVOS.
During 2001 they continued with their shows across the continent and were invited to close the 2001 VIVE LATINO edition.
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.
In 2006 the band went on one of its most important tours. They performed in México, Uruguay, Ecuador, Puerto Rico, USA, Venezuela, Canadá, Bolivia, Colombia, Chile, Salvador and Perú; more than 140 shows in a year.

In April they returned to Mexico for the Reggae Music Fest featuring Pato Banton in their set. During May they closed the International Festival of Veracruz, and had a show for 50,000 in Caracas Venezuela.
PERICOS is currently working on new material to be released this November.
Mucha Experiencia
Los Pericos Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
tiene algo que esconder
No es lo que quiere, un payaso
alguien que sea su relajo
Por eso yo digo así;
Mucha Experiencia para que me oiga este relajo,
Mucha Experiencia para bailar su Rock'n Roll
Mucha Experiencia para que me oiga este relajo,
Lo que ella odia de mí,
casarme con ella rehusé
tal para cual, ella solía decir
pensar que yo fuese su relajo
Por eso yo digo así;
Mucha Experiencia para que me oiga este relajo,
Mucha Experiencia para bailar su Rock'n Roll
Mucha Experiencia para que me oiga este relajo,
y no es mi orgullo vanidad.
(Repite las dos primeras estrofas)
Mucha Experiencia para tí;
yo ya no te quiero y es la verdad...
The lyrics of "Mucha Experiencia" by Los Pericos suggest a man who is trying to deal with the fact that the woman he loves does not want him around. He realizes that she has something to hide and he is not the type of man she wants around. He does not want to be seen as a clown or someone who can be easily toyed with. He says he has a lot of experience and it is not just his pride or vanity talking. The woman hates something about him, and he refused to marry her. She used to think that he was just a source of entertainment for her. However, he knows that he has more value than that.
The song shows the inner turmoil of a man as he navigates the complexities of a difficult relationship. He is not willing to be just a plaything for someone, and he values himself more than that. He is trying to make sense of why the woman does not want him anymore, and he is trying to come to terms with the rejection. He uses his experience as a way to assert his value and dignity. He wants the woman to know that he is not just a clown and he deserves to be treated with more respect.

Ella no me quiere a su lado, tiene algo que esconder
She doesn't want me by her side, she has something to hide
No es lo que quiere, un payaso alguien que sea su relajo
She doesn't want a clown, someone who's just for fun
Por eso yo digo así; Mucha Experiencia para que me oiga este relajo
That's why I say it like this; Much experience so she can hear my nonsense
Mucha Experiencia para bailar su Rock'n Roll
Much experience to dance to her Rock'n Roll
y no es mi orgullo vanidad.
And it's not my pride that makes me say this
Lo que ella odia de mí, casarme con ella rehusé
What she hates about me is that I refused to marry her
tal para cual, ella solía decir pensar que yo fuese su relajo
As she used to say, we were a perfect match, she thought I was just for fun
Mucha Experiencia para tí; yo ya no te quiero y es la verdad...
Much experience for you; I don't love you anymore and that's the truth...
