Abstract: The book proposes to solve the absence of a continental and comparative narrative of rock in Latin America that also incorporates the gender perspective. At the same time, it proposes to pay attention to the ways of processing and incorporating music that is in principle foreign, listened to and observed, generally, with distaste for the left and also for the conservative universe, sometimes with arguments converging with the previous ones. This project, naturally, requires thinking about the Brazilian scene, which reproduces several of the characteristics of the two Spanishspeaking founding scenes – the Mexican and the Argentine – and introduces crucial novelties, such as its internal dispute around, simply, the use of the electric guitar. In this sense, then, our book is proposed as a good history, complete, documented and critical. This work is the general introduction to the book, in which the general hypotheses that organized the research are presented.
