Former band member Tom Darnal was one of the founders of the band P18
About name
La Mano Negra ("The Black Hand") was a supposed anarchist organization in Andaluc铆a, Spain, accused of many terrorist acts. Although, in latter studies, its existence was found unlikely and was probably an excuse used by the government under Sagasta to oppress anarchist activity in southern Spain.

Mano Negra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Carallo que tia mas buena
Llego su due帽o de amor
Y me quede con el rencor
Privando vino peleo
Se que me espera un destino cruel
Privando como un cabron
Listo para una noche de acci贸n
Buscando bronca cualquiera
Y el que no aguante mi borrachera
Sepa que enfrente tiene a una fiera
De repente en la verbena
Va y se me acerca la morena
Va con el hijo de puta aquel
Y ahora empieza la pelea, voy a por el
The song "Noche de acci贸n" by Mano Negra tells the story of a man who falls in love with a beautiful woman and becomes jealous of her lover. The lyrics depict a night of heavy drinking and fighting as the singer struggles with his anger and resentment towards the other man. He describes himself as ready for a "night of action", implying his willingness to fight and engage in other forms of aggression.
The use of language in the song is rough and aggressive, reflecting the singer's state of mind. He swears and shouts, looking for a fight with anyone who crosses his path. The lyrics also express a sense of fatalism and despair, as the singer acknowledges that he is headed for a "cruel destiny". The line "me quede con el rencor" (I was left with resentment) captures the bitterness and anger that he feels towards the woman's chosen partner.
Overall, the song portrays a world of violence and conflict, where love is associated with jealousy and possession. The singer's aggressive behavior is presented as a symptom of a larger societal problem, where men are socialized to believe that violence is an appropriate response to emotional pain and frustration.
