They are like the "antitesis", the opposite of what Argentinean music is known for: Charly Garcia, Fito Paez, Soda Stereo, Andres Calamaro. They are simply harmless, infectious, almost bubble POP. Electro-pop, catchy hooks and nice videos :) This is their new song, from the soundtrack to the movie Lola, Miranda! and "Hola" Cutie nice song :) Miranda! is definitely one of my guilty pleasures of the last decade www.youtube.com/watch?v=hVRgQvpwS5Q

Oh, I didn't know they were from Argentina. I though they were from Spain for some reason. I guess because their music is so Euro-Pop sounding and this song further proves that.

Hehe, just listen to the way they pronounce the "Y" like "sh". Example: their first big hit: "Yo te Dire" (I L-O-V-E-D that song, the bits of choreography and the mix of their voices, especially in the last chorus), pay attention to 0:51 "cuando SHegas... SHo te dire" ;) :) www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEYZ4sWgaT4

wow, they actually look like normal people in that video. But its probably because they are going for that 50s setting.

Yeah, a guilty pleasure is a good term for them. I've heard I think only some songs. Maybe a couple of the band by itself, the collaboration with Julieta and two collaborations with Fangoria. I enjoyed them all.
They were touring in España, Tortuga. Maybe that's why you thought they were from there? I don't know. They were doing stuff over there with Fangoria, Nancys Rubias and others.
I've heard one time the link of the new song, JuanK, and I enjoyed it too. It's good to have bands that go out of the norm and want to do fun music. And if you add glam and extravagant stuff on top, I'm all for it. No problems. :)
