If in Peru, Los Saicos are a razor-sharp black star of the subterranean heavens, Los Holy's are a blazing constellation. They could be considered the first local psychedelia movement of the mid-60s: they were capable of experimenting with compositions and sounds beyond the New Wave beat melodies common at the time, and all of this while remaining a basically instrumental band. The group's first LP, Sueno Sicodelico (Psychedelic Dream), is an ambitious and original album, and one of the earliest and most perfect Latin American conceptual pop records.
