Sin Documentos is a landmark album in Spanish popular culture and
continues to maintain considerable popularity more than two decades
after its release. The characteristic guitar riff of the title
song, a kind of rumba-rock, still occupies a place at every party
in Spain. Los Rodriguez's success came after a decade characterized
by the rise and fall of local-language punk and new wave bands. By
the time Sin Documentos appeared, however, rock journalism was
fascinated by the thriving indie scene, where the bands were
singing in English and had turned to grunge and noise rock. This
book evaluates the influence of Latin American pop-rock in the
modernization of Spanish popular music from the 1950s, despite the
Anglophilia of Spanish rock scenes, especially in the 1990s.
Through interviews with members of the band and members of the
record label DRO, analysis of the media coverage of the album and a
cultural analysis of its meanings, it delves into the cultural
trends of Spain throughout the 1990s and beyond.
