Argies kommen zum zweiten Mal ins Thav!Since their formation in 1984, Argies have stood out due to their libertarian poetry, the power of
their music and the understanding and coherence of their political attitude. Even though their roots
can be found in the British Punk from the seventies, nowadays their music witnesses influences
from ska, reggae, dub and good part of rock’n’roll elements and Latin rhythms.
Practicing a philosophy of "do it yourself" they have made a successful career while maintaining
independence.
The name "Argies" derives from the English pejorative term for "Argentinean" which was most
popularly used by the British yellow press during the Falkland War in 1982.
Far from being nationalists, their name connects the band, the members of which define
themselves as internationalists, with debased minorities and marginalized people worldwide.
By the mid nineties, Argies left their hometown Rosario and moved to Buenos Aires. Since then,
playing more than 35 shows annually, they came to be known as one of the most frequently
performing acts in town. Starting in 1999, the band has regularly played extended tours in America,
Asia and Europe.
The Band functions like a collective of committed musicians all of which form part of the project for
undetermined periods, entering and leaving Argies with the same liberty that also characterizes the
work in the band and the way in which its members study and teach in joint efforts across their
differences.
Over the years, the band’s particular method of making music has made Argies a truly independent
cultural movement.
