oh okay. just wondering if you want more "regional" sounding stuff or the more amercanised/european rockist sound. i'll throw out some recs of the latter.
resplandor is pretty good shoegazey stuff
dolores delirio is post-punk with pretty dark/gothic vibes
g3 was probably peru's most popular punk band. they were pretty good. when they changed to inyectores they went downhill.
never liked them, but los mojarras had this "chicha rock" thing going. i think they were from the 80s?
again, never was a fan, but we all together were the thing to talk about back in the 70s if you were a music fan, especially of the beatles. they have similar styles. they did incorporate some regional sounds, if memory serves. i've not listened to them in over 15 years.
i want to say mar de copas was probably one of the earliest biggest rock bands that peru "exported"? arena hash never fully caught on in other parts of latin america, i don't think. this was before libido and other big names from the late 90s and 2000s.
that's all that comes to mind for now

eight years pass...
Singer Susana Baca is intensive care in a hospital in Peru. Apparently she’s also being mocked on twitter x by conservatives who don’t like her politics

I have Tarkus arriving some time soon. So there's great for you.
Been meaning to get it for a while.
May get Pax at some point. Though the lyrics seem a tad not great.
