On their second work, the band delved deeper into their bizarre and provocative aesthetic, delivering a darker and more complex album than its predecessor but without abandoning danceable rhythms and fierce social criticism. The title itself sums up the group's proposal: a celebration of chaos and the contradictions of an Argentina that lived in a bubble of fictitious joy during the 1990s.
Songs like 'Los elefantitos' and 'Tu pastilla fue' showed a maturity in composition and a bolder sonic exploration, incorporating wind and percussion arrangements that began to define their 'tropical-rock' style. The recording was a process of constant experimentation in the studio, where the musicians allowed themselves to play with free structures and lyrics loaded with double meanings and dirty realism.
Although it did not achieve immediate massive success, the album consolidated a base of loyal followers who saw in Bersuit an authentic and necessary voice against the prevailing superficiality in other cultural spheres. It is a cult work that paved the way for the great popular explosion that would come a few years later, with the help of internationally renowned producers.
