I think everyone always gets excited by these current bands that turn out to be incredible, cd. Level F and Zopp.  This band discographed here, is mostly in the loud hot and furiously progressive fusion category, that is, like latin Iceberg or Fusioon which came before, bands which I guess everyone is well familiar with.

However their progressiveness is so special, and thankfully non-latinized with all that entails (no flamenco chord progressions for the most part and no bossa nova/samba) combining high energy electric instruments with some chamber composition a la Julverne full of tritones and dissonances and strong features resembling the infamous Italian band Picchio dal Pozzo (one of my all-time favourites) so pretty unique.  Notice that the first one came out only as cassette in the inauspicious year of 1987, though recall Nuevo Aires also made incredible music in that period in time.

From the first album the Julverne tendencies appear obvious on the track called Maquinerias:

They reached their peak in progressive chamber-RIO-style fusion on the 1997 album, ten years after the first, called Trabajos Inutiles. For me such a joy to discover something so good in such an unusually unpromising year.

From Animal, Viejo al Silencio really reminds a lot of the Picchio nutbars, notice the very abrupt changes in tempo:
