Argentina

Those are midway between metal and hard rock:

D-Mente & León Gieco
Pensar en nada

La Naranja
Corazón agotado

Bizarre metal
Asspera
El hijo de cuca

Ok. Here is Soda Stereo, and after it the Cadillacs:

Soda Stereo:

Corazón delator

La ciudad de la furia

Lo que sangra

Nada personal

The Fabulosos Cadillacs made a fusion of many Latin genres with ska. They are one of the scarce Argentine bands known outside of Argentina.

Demasiada presión

Carnaval toda la vida

Yo no me sentaría en tu mesa

El satánico doctor Cadillac

This is one of the most popular songs from Redonditos de Ricota. I would not put it between the 20 best, but is one of the most liked, and covered.

Here are some covers:

An harmonic cover by who knows who is:

An instrumental cover by Sweet Little Band. It intends to be "for babies":

A ska attempt by Los Calzones Rotos:

A capella by Arbol:

And the original by Redonditos:

Another contributor, thanks God! Welcome, Argento. I wanted to show a lot of Argentine bands and singer-songwriters, but the lack of time is keeping me from posting at the Spanish-language music thread lately. I mentioned some big names, though. I especially like that great rock music from the 70's:

Pop and rock bands in general. Just two examples. Soda Stereo: Persiana americana ("Persian Blinds"). Babasónicos: Risa ("Laughter").

In 2009 he released his album "Un mañana". I didn't, liked it. Too generic:

The leader of Soda Stereo had a brain stroke, and is on hospital bed. It's probably for ever.

Babasónicos is doing a cover of "Ella vendrá" (from Don Cornelio y La Zona), but I don't like it. I prefer this independent cover:

This is some Argentine music on foreign movies:

Gustavo Santaolalla
Wings (from the movie Brokeback Mountain)
(it starts at 1:50)

This song was composed by Gato Barbieri for "Last tango in Paris"
Here is interpreted by Michael Paulo:

Lalo Schifrin
Mission impossible

This song from Angel Villoldo is on many movies, including the "Adams family", and "Shall we Dance". Here is interpreted by Katica Illenyi.
El choclo

This is the closest thing to rap/hip hop I can stand. But I'm really not onto rap.

Auténticos decadentes
Tribus urbanas

Mancha de Rolando
Cabrón

Charly García
Rap de las hormigas

The government tried to censor this song. It called the president by his name, and accused him of being a drug trafficker. The band -Manos de Filippi- was sued by the president. He could be successful, but this other band, Bersuit Vergarabat took the song, and made it famous. This band was too important and popular to be pursued.

Bersuit Vergarabat
Sr. Cobranza (Manos de Filippi)

Let's go back to reggae:

Suéter
El anda diciendo

Los Pericos
El ritual de la banana

Man Ray
En el caribe sur

La Zimbabwe
Loco de atar

Skay Beilinson was guitarrist of Redonditos de Ricota.

Oda a la sin nombre

Lluvia sobre Bagdad

Entre el cielo y la tierra
