Golpes brings together some of the holy grails of Spanish post-punk in 7” format — records that helped define the sound of the early ’80s. This box set is a collection of rarities, but above all, a celebration of monumental songs that have become timeless anthems, transcending darkwave, la movida, and new wave alike. Just look at the lineup: ‘Autosuficiencia,’ ‘El Hospital,’ ‘Nacidos para dominar,’ ‘Cómo perdimos Berlín,’ ‘Quiero ser santa,’ ‘Los Celos se apoderan de mí,’ and, of course, ‘Golpes.’ You’ll find names like Alaska y los Pegamoides and Gabinete Caligari, who went on to achieve massive popularity and commercial success, alongside legendary artists such as Desechables and Parálisis Permanente—arguably Spain’s most iconic post-punk band—and cult favorites beloved by the most dedicated fans, like Agrimensor K and El Último Sueño.. This box set comprises impossible-to-find singles, genre classics, and rarities like the 12”s by Seres Vacíos or the mythical flexi by Alaska y los Pegamoides, now appearing for the first time ever on 7” vinyl.
In total, 14 seven-inch records, each with its original artwork and inserts. Also included is a 24-page booklet featuring flyers, posters, ads, quotes, and fanzine clippings from the era, plus a text by Borja Prieto, and the ultra-rare Alaska y los Pegamoides poster that originally came with the first pressing of their single “Horror en el hipermercado.” “Golpes” is a deep dive into the darker side of Spain’s vibrant 1980s music scene. An absolute must-have..
