Argentine Alternative Rock

Argentine Alternative Rock is a genre of rock music that originated in Argentina in the late 1980s. It is characterized by its heavy use of distorted guitars, driving rhythms, and often political lyrics. It is heavily influenced by punk, grunge, and metal, and often incorporates elements of Latin American music such as cumbia and tango. It is often seen as a reaction to the more mainstream pop music of the time, and is often seen as a way for Argentine musicians to express their political and social views.
