And we don't have mentioned other interesting genres. For instance, Metal. In the 80's and 90's there were very good bands, like Barón Rojo (Spain), Obús (idem) and Rata Blanca (Argentina).
Obús, Va a estallar el obús (" The bombshell is going to explode", 1981):
Barón Rojo and their homonymous song from 1981 (" Red Baron", after the famous flying ace):
Rata Blanca, La leyenda del Hada y el Mago ("The Legend of the Fairy and the Wizard"):
Punk rock too. For example, Siniestro Total. Here playing Bailaré sobre tu tumba ("I'll Dance on your Tomb"):
" I'll kill you with my tap dance shoes,
I'll asphyxiate you with my ballet tights,
I'll hang you with my tuxedo,
and you'll die while disc jockey laughs.
And I'll dance on your tomb.
And I'll dance on your tomb.
I'll slit your throat with a sharp record
of The Rolling Stones or The Shadows.
You'll swallow my cassettes
of The Shangri-Las or The Ronettes.
And I'll dance on your tomb.
And I'll dance on your tomb.
I'll stick my guitar on you,
I'll mash you down with my piano,
I'll skin you with my cymbals,
I'll trepan you with my Hammond organ.
And I'll dance on your tomb.
And I'll dance on your tomb.
And I'll dance on your tomb..."
And Electropop. Molecules mentioned Aviador Dro, one the pioneer bands of the genre in Spanish:

A kind of " Spanish Kraftwerk"  . And provocative. 1983: So many people wearing those famous " Nuclear? No, thanks" stickers and pins... ...and these guys singing:
"Nuclear, yes, of course!
Nuclear, yes, sure!
I want to take baths in seas of radium,
with clouds of strontium, cobalt and plutonium.
I want to have lead wrappers,
and mutant kids on motorbikes.
Deserted ruins with beautiful swimming pools,
ethereal women with vampiress voices.
Multiform robots searching in the streets
for the inert remains of the old man."
Nuclear, yes, of course!
Nuclear, yes, sure!
Sunburned hills,
inmense cities inhabited by cyborgs.
Monstrous snakes devouring houses,
and enormous spaceships with weird shapes.
Roaring volcanoes spitting out lava,
and violet forests with orange grass.
Hidden caves in deep beaches,
and valleys covered by winged flowers.
Nuclear, yes, of course!
Nuclear, yes, sure!
Nuclear, yes, of course!
Nuclear, yes, sure! Sure!
Nuclear, yes, of course! "
Even now they still seem to be politically incorrect. Just take a look at some YouTube's comments, of the " sing it in Chernobyl if you have balls" type, etc...
BTW, there was a 30th-anniversary concert  :
Another successful Electropop band is OBK, from the 90's, very influenced by O.M.D. and Depeche Mode. Songs: Historias de amor, Oculta realidad, El cielo no entiende, Lucifer, Tú sigue así.
