After a wildly successful tour across South America in late 2005, the band decided, in their own words, to "stop for a while". Some of their members went on to form side band projects such as No Relax and The Locos. As time went by without further notices, many Ska-P fans feared the band had been gone for good. On late April 2008 and for the rejoice of their worldwide fans, they announced their return as a band on their official site.
Their new album, "Lágrimas y gozos", was released the 7th of October 2008 and its first single is called "Crimen sollicitationis". The band is going to perform various shows around South America and Europe in November and December.

La estampida es imminente, salva tu vida es fundamental
Eh no, basta ya, ven unamonos

The song "Estampida" by Ska-P is a call to action, urging people to unite and resist against those who oppress and exploit them. The lyrics describe a situation where the singer is hiding in the shadows, waiting for the right moment to act because an impending crisis or danger is about to happen. The "estampida" or stampede is a metaphor for a social upheaval, where people are forced to flee or fight for survival. The urgency of the situation is emphasized by the repetition of the phrase "salva tu vida es fundamental" which means "saving your life is essential."
The song also critiques the current social and political system, which they believe favors the predators, the exploiters, and the executive powers who are in control. They highlight the need for people to use their critical thinking skills, to challenge the status quo, and to organize themselves to resist the oppression. The repeated lines "Eh no, basta ya" which means "Hey no, enough already" is an outcry against the injustice and the apathy of those who choose not to act.
The chorus reaffirms the need for people to unite and resist. They call for a revolution that will bring down the predators and the executors who are responsible for the inequality and the suffering of the masses. They end the song with a powerful chant of "Tumba tumbaremos al depredador, tumba timbaturemos al ejecutor" which means "We will topple the predator, we will overthrow the executor." This rallying cry is a call to arms for those who believe that change is not only possible but necessary.
Overall, "Estampida" is a powerful and provocative song that encourages critical thinking, resistance, and solidarity. It speaks to those who have been marginalized and oppressed, reminding them of their power and their potential to create a better world.
