Guerrilla Urbana (Urban Guerrilla in Spanish language) is a punk-rock group of the Canary Islands.
History
The group was formed in San Cristóbal de La Laguna (Tenerife) in 1983, sharing local with Eskorbuto Crónico, pioneering punk-rock band in the Canary Islands (dating back to the late 70's) and gradually the members of this group were integrated in Guerrilla Urbana (as the original components were leaving the band) until in mid-1984 Eskorbuto Crónico was finally dissolved. Two years later "Cuervo", the drummer, was also incorporated into the band, being the last final member joining.
After numerous local performances, two tours in the Basque Country and several demos, Guerrilla Urbana recorded their first album Razón de Estado in 1989.
In 2012 Guerrilla Urbana released their tenth album, the first recorded live, called Serenata para antro y chusma Opus X.
Ideas
The majority of the lyrics of the group are either about social issues or antireligious, antimilitaristic, antiauthoritarian, antifacist and anticolonialist themes. The group members are close to anarchist ideas.
