recorded first album

From there Los Traidores continued playing live and recorded their first album, titled “ Montevideo Agoniza ” (Montevideo in Agony) (Orfeo), 1986). The LP did not reflect the theme of its title, even though the record was considered too “heavy” for a first album for its existentialist themes. The band appeared on television, made a couple of music videos (“La Muerte Elegante” [The Elegant Death] and “Juegos De Poder” [Power Games]) and played several large open-air concerts at the Veléódromo Municipal (with an audience of 4,000 people), Teatro de Verano (with an audience of 6,000 people) and closed the final night of the Montevideo Rock I festival (with an audience of 15,000 people).
