Zaqarbal's posts in this thread =
 Can anyone recommend something similar to Soda Stereo? I've been listening to their album Signos recently and my favourite tracks were Persiana Americana and El Rito. |

I don´t know if Zaqarbal is still around - I haven´t seen him post for a while, and now I wish I´d voted for him as an under-the-radar member. He posts so much musical material, but doesn´t push his on-line personality. Got to admire his restraint !
Anyway, Zabarqal, if you´re still here, and if you have a long memory, you may recall that I once asked you about a band whose name was like a dinosaur. Well, I finally found them again. They are from Colombia and here is the first track that turns up on Youtube :-

 Yep, I remember the Archaeopteryx or something like that. Aterciopelados means "the velvety ones" (terciopelo means velvet). The band was mentioned in this thread about three years ago. Bolero falaz ("Deceitful Bolero") is one of their best-known songs. It's a kind of satire about boleros (you can see a lyrics' translation here). Bolero songs were very popular in the whole Spanish-speaking world from the 40's to the 60's. They had a romantic and idealistic tone.
