Acto Fundacional
Siniestro Total were a Spanish punk band formed in Vigo in 1981. Their debut LP ÂżCuĂĄndo se come aquĂ? (DRO 1982) is regarded as one of the best Spanish albums from that era.
A big commercial success accompanied the band for over a decade, until the mid-late 90s, when the popularity of the groups from the so-called âmovida madrileñaâ and other similar scenes from other parts of Spain such as Galicia, where Siniestro Total were formed, faded away. While JuliĂĄn HernĂĄndez would remain as the front man of Siniestro Total, the other members of the original line-up of the band would later take part in other well-known musical projects such as Golpes Bajos, Os Resentidos, and AerolĂneas Federales.
Many of their best and most popular songs, reflecting the punk and fun essence of the band, were written in the early days of Siniestro Total. Now we are thrilled to unearth the recording of the first-ever gig played by the band. The show took place at Vigoâs Cine Salesianos in December 1981, as part of a festival called Nadal Rock, in front of a small but enthusiastic crowd.
Four songs played that night never made it into any of the band's LPs: the instrumental intro, "Bomba atĂłmica en Policarpo Sanz" âa cover of the Jamâs âA-Bomb on Wardour St.ââ, "Isla Tropical" and "ÂĄUn, dos!" âthe Specialsâ âLittle Bitchâ. But the most outstanding revelation that night was maybe GermĂĄn Coppini proving himself to be a talented frontman, sporting a stunning voice and a sarcastic and cruel attitude on stage.
Right at the end of the show, the band was asked to play the irreverent "Ayatolah!" again and, although not crazy about the idea, agreed to do it as a treat to the small crowd, made up mainly of friends. At that very moment, the band realized they had a big tune there. "Ayatolah!" would become one of Siniestro Totalâs anthems from that night on.
