    Seems like there was an error during editing and the audio does not align with the visuals. You just have to live with it, bye.

    Almost 30 years ago, I ended up talking with a German and a Greek collector, and, being Colombian, they asked me what I knew about Kraken. That was weird, that they even knew the band. Later I realised Kraken was known by a very few European underground collectors, and that they had discovered the band when there was no Internet. These German and Greek collectors, I started sending them CDs from the band, until one day, in a flea market in Bogotá, I found that vinyl album you’re holding, in a very poor condition. Still, I decided to send it to him as surprise, since it was so hard to find. He was the happiest Greek on earth, he really loved the band. And something odd was that they said they loved the vocals in Spanish, even though they couldn’t understand nothing… They said there was something to it that they really appreciated. Just a story you made me think about. This was a really cool video to watch 🤘🏼🔥🇨🇴

    Fascinating video, Thomas. These bands have some absolutely amazing histories. I thank you for featuring them, as you are correct, I'd never heard of the bands, and therefore would likely never have heard their stories.
    I have some listening to do, as usual! 😂
    Cheers! 🤘

    Nice video and topic. The first 3 Rata Blanca records are must listen for any hard rock/heavy metal fan
    I remember i discovered them because Mago de Oz covered Mujer Amante and Walter Gardino played in a live DVD they did in 2004-5
    Mago de Oz is also another band nobody talks about and people should check out

    Hi Thomas!!! Well done and cool to see this more "obscure" bands...... and yes Rata Blanca is the biggest "hard rock", "heavy metal" in this area of the world. "Magos, Espadas y Rozas" and the two big songs from that release are amazing "hits", Walter Giardino is a cross between Yngwie and Blackmore, imo and yes they had one album sang in English, (Forgotten Kingdom) they "hired" Doogie White just for that release...... I watched the episode Metal School did on them and it was a nice surprise to see them feature there. Never heard about Kraken i will check them out. cheers and be well

    • @mercyfulmetal7324

    Hello there, first time in your channel. Rata Blanca is big in southamerica, i will say that the song Mujer amante is even listen by people that is not into Hard rock or heavy metal. and i gonna check out the korean band.
    a few Albums you should check from south america
    Riff- VII (1985 Argentina)
    V8 - Luchando por el metal (1983 Argentina)
    Anthares - No Limite da Força (Brasil 1987)
    Torturer - Opressed by the force (Chile 1993)
    Sadism - Tribulated Bells (Chile 1991)
    mostly of the records in south america were demos or eps, Brasil were like an exception in the region they have a lot of thrash metal albums from the 80s and early 90s and few heavy metal bands.
    Greatings from Chile.
