Ilegales

Ilegales, a Spanish rock group formed in Asturias in 1977 by Jorge Martínez, Juan Carlos, and David Alonso. Initially known as Madson, they changed their name to Los Metálicos before settling on Ilegales. The band's breakthrough came in 1981 when they won the Ciudad de Oviedo rock contest, leading to the release of their self-titled debut album Ilegales. This was followed by Agotados de esperar el fin (1984) and Todos están muertos (1985), which solidified their success. In 1986, they released their first live album and in 1988, Chicos pálidos para la máquina. The band announced their disbandment in 2010 but reunited in 2015. In 2022, they released the album, La lucha por la vida, accompanied by a tour of Spain and America.
