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.

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.

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.

During May they closed the International Festival of Veracruz, and had a show for 50,000 in Caracas Venezuela.

Los Pericos Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You know cause I know.
Oh, please.
You know were I need.
Oh, never mind.
Never slow down.
You know cause I know.
What is mine.
Realase.
What is life.
Realase.
Oh, never mind
Never slow down.
This song has a simple yet powerful message. It is about the understanding that exists between two people who have a special connection. The repeated lines "oh please, you know cause I know" reveal a deep trust and mutual understanding. The singer is expressing their vulnerability and trusting the other person to know what they need and to be there for them. The line "what is mine, release" suggests a letting go of personal possessions and desires in order to fully embrace the relationship.
The repetition of the phrase "never mind, never slow down" emphasizes the idea of being fully present in the moment and not letting anything distract from the connection between the two people. This can be interpreted as a call to live in the present moment and not to worry about the past or future, but instead to fully embrace the relationship in the present.
Overall, "Sano Y Salvo" is a song about the intense connection that can exist between two people and the trust and vulnerability required to maintain it.
