Los Holy's
Sueno Sicodelico (10in LP)
1967
If in Peru, Los Saicos are a razor-sharp black star of the subterranean heavens, Los Holy's are a blazing constellation. They could be considered the first local psychedelia movement of the mid-60s: they were capable of experimenting with compositions and sounds beyond the New Wave beat melodies common at the time, and all of this while remaining a basically instrumental band.
The group's first LP, Sueno Sicodelico (Psychedelic Dream), is an ambitious and original album, and one of the earliest and most perfect Latin American conceptual pop records. They wrote on the back of this LP, "Los Holys symbolize the restless and evolved heart of today's youth. Do we know all of the sounds that are heard at the bottoms of the sea? Space stations don't capture sound-waves produced at thousands of light years? We will try to reproduce those sounds with our instruments and maybe they'll end up being more pleasant than the crashing of waves." Leader Walo would later found additional bands, touchstones of other facets of Peruvian rock: Telegraph Avenue and Tarkus.
