Siniestro Total were a Spanish punk band formed in Vigo in 1981. Their debut LP ¿Cuándo se come aquí? is regarded as one of the best Spanish albums from that era. Acto Fundacional is the recording of their first ever gig in December 1981. It comprises original songs and versions that would also become the band's live repertoire in their early years. Four songs played that night never made it into any of Siniestro Total's LPs. 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 "movida madrileña" and other similar scenes from other parts of Spain such as Galicia, where Siniestro Total were formed, faded away. While Julián Hernández 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 Aerolíneas 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. The show on this album took place at Vigo's 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 atómica en Policarpo Sanz" -- a cover of the Jam's "A-Bomb on Wardour St." ? "Isla Tropical," and "¡Un, dos!" -- the Specials' "Little Bitch." But the most outstanding revelation that night was maybe Germán 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 Total's anthems from that night on.

If you own a Crosley, Victrola or any other lower end turntable that has no ability to adjust the weight of the tone arm and are experiencing skipping on a new record please try the "Penny Trick". Simply place a penny on the top of the cartidge and it should provide enough weight to resolve your issues. While a great entry to the world of vinyl we do recommend upgrading to a turntable with a tone arm that can be adjusted as this issue will randomly occur. We do not take returns in these cases.
Resellers: If you are buying from us for resale we honestly don't mind. However, please don't panic if something you bought suddenly isn't flipable for more money and then try to return stuff to us because you feel like you made a bad investment choice. Despite our outsized reputation we're a small shop, not amazon. Absorbing these costs adds up on places like ours. Plus a little patience always tends to pay off.

Due to an increasing number of payment processors no longer returning transaction fees to sellers on cancelled orders and rising labor costs any orders or pre-orders that need to be cancelled before shipment will be assessed a 5% cancellation/restocking fee on the order total including shipping and any other taxes or fees associated with the order.
