The early days. 'twas back in 1989, somewhere in the red light districts of Las Pargas (northern Bolivia). Johnny and Acid had just bought their first instruments, with money acquired in their first robbery... which was left unsolved by the Bolivian authorities, since the victim was not found. Johnny, at the end of his boyhood (touched for the first time). Acid, straight and clean for the first time in years, hired a room used as a brothel in day-time. And they started playing, having dragged out a naked human being of unspecific gender - in a coma - from the unheated bombshell... From that moment on, they did nothing but practised, until their fingers, eyes and ears bled - almost one minute later, when they had written 12 new songs, they decided they should trade in the ocarina and the Disney-tambourine for a rock'n'roll guitar and a real drum kit. Since they had no money they were forced to build their gear from scratch. Plastic aerobic-cushions and a black rubber duck were transformed into a blazing, yet crappy, guitar. The drum kit was only a fiction of their feeble little minds.
