Rata Blanca is the first studio album by the Argentine heavy metal band of the same name released in 1988 by Polydor Records.[1]

Recording history[]

Vocalist Saúl Blanch left the band before recording the album. After his departure, a number of other singers, such as Carlos Perigo and Shito Molina, took his place. Molina was supposed to be the singer in the album, but he left because of a throat illness. As a result, the band, pressed for time, decided to re-recruit Blanch for the recordings. After the recording of the album and some gigs, Blanch left the group, who then recruited Adrián Barilari.

It was reissued on CD in 1993 by Philips Records.[2]

Tracks[]

All lyrics by Walter Giardino except where noted. The songs "Preludio Obsesivo" and "El Último Ataque" originally written and composed by Giardino appeared as if penned by Roberto Conso, as part of a debt settlement.
