Contra Reloj

Originally released in 1986, Contra Reloj was Los Enanitos Verdes' sophomore effort but the first that the group recorded for CBS. Produced by Andrés Calamaro, the album is a good collection of simple pop/rock songs and probably one of the strongest albums that the band has ever recorded. It's like a greatest-hits collection in itself: "La Muralla Verde," "Conciencia Contra Reloj," "Cada Vez Que Digo Adiós," and "Simulacro de Tensión" were massive hits at the time and still are covered by the band in its shows. Especially recommended for lovers of '80s Argentinean rock. ~ Iván Adaime
