Bersuit Vergarabat is an Argentinean festive rock band formed in 1988, originating in Barracas, Buenos Aires. Much like their contemporaries Los Autenticos Decadentes, this group combines rock music with other popular genres such as cumbia, tango, reggae, murga, folklore and candombe. Unlike them, though, they have a more "serious" approach in their music, with lyrical themes about social issues, everyday happenings, and the like. They were even censored several times.The band was formed when vocalist Gustavo Cordera returned from a trip to Brazil at the tail end of his studies on social communication. He shaved his hair, sold his old agency and abandoned his studies in order to create the band, meeting his future band members (who were already playing as "Los Prehistóricos") at an old house, where they improvised some of their old songs. The initial lineup of the band was conformed by Cordera, guitarist Charly Bianco, bassist Pepe Céspedes, drummer Carlos MartÃn and keyboardist Juan Subirá. Rhythm guitarist Oscar Righi, backing/alternate vocalist Rubén Sadrinas, keyboardist Raúl Pagano and percussionist Marcela Chediak completed the lineup that recorded the debut album ...Y punto, released in 1992.For the release of 1993's Asquerosa AlegrÃa, Sadrinas and Pagano departed (leaving Cordera as the only vocalist) and guitarist/vocalist Alberto "Tito" Verenzuela joined the band replacing Bianco. They were also joined by legendary Argentinean producer Gustavo Santaolalla, who was a fundamental figure in their popularity. Several more members came and went until the settling of the lineup that recorded 1998's Libertinaje, their magnum opus, which contains the hits "Yo Tomo", "Se Viene" and "Señor Cobranza", a Cover Version of a song by Las Manos De Filippi: Cordera, Céspedes, MartÃn, Right, Verenzuela and backing/alternate vocalists Daniel Suárez and Germán "Cóndor" Sbarbatti. This lineup is considered their peak years' lineup, playing in tons of big name festivals and gigs and eventually reaching the mythical stadium of River Plate. It also recorded everything between Libertinaje and 2007's ? (yep, that's the album's name).Creative Differences prevented this lineup to continue, though, with Cordera proposing the band to stop after said album, and later parting ways with the band, with Cordera launching a solo career. The band without Cordera returned in 2011.Aside of their music, they also contributed and recorded Real Song Theme Tunes for several argentinean series. | |

Protest Song | |
| Bersuit Vergarabat (Music) / int_16d8476f | comment |
Protest Song: Libertinaje has "Se Viene" and "Señor Cobranza". It also contains "C.S.M." (for then-president of Argentina Carlos Saúl Menem), which is a song where the destruction of the ass is used as a slang for government oppression. Hijos del Culo is a profanity-laden slang that describes children being born from poverty. | |

Badass Boast: In "La argentinidad al palo", after the list of Argentinian achievements is followed by a list of Argentine political scandals, the narrator goes up in a profane tirade (implied to be against the corrupt politicians mentioned just before). | |

Cranky Neighbor: "El Viejo de Arriba", from Hijos del Culo, is an inversion: the narrator/singer is a party person, and his neighbor wants him to shut up because his party style doesn't allow him to get rest. | |

| Bersuit Vergarabat (Music) / int_92192cf9 | comment |
Refuge in Vulgarity: The band makes no attempt at hiding this, starting from the cover artwork of Asquerosa AlegrÃa being formed by naked women and the clown on the cover being made of two naked asses, and goes downhill from there. | |

Mood Whiplash: Quite frequent with the band. An example is "C.S.M." from Libertinaje is about government oppression, ambiented on top of a festive cumbia-like background. | |

Earth Song: "Madre Hay Una Sola", from Testosterona, is both this and Gaia's Lament, claiming that "[societal] progress was a failure, a suicide" and that "prosperity was the heaviest wagon". In the chorus, the titular Gaia is portrayed as a woman being raped in a pathetic feast by humanity. | |
