Wikepedia says:
Los Miserables is a well-known Chilean punk rock band formed in the early 1990s shortly after the demise of the military regime of Augusto Pinochet. The band is known for its songs charged with strong left-wing political ideas and anti-establishment commentary. The band has clearly presented itself as actvist in its work with major participation in political events, international charity concerts, human rights events, and volunteer work in impoverished Chilean communities. The band has modeled itself in some ways after the famed Chilean band Los Prisioneros, who left a void after their initial break-up in 1990. Their albums can be found in Chile, Latin America, and the United States.
This band achieved major success in Chile in the mid 1990s, and is well known in Argentina, Colombia, and Mexico. They have recorded 8 albums, including three live albums, and received gold records in Chile. The band has also contributed songs to major Chilean movie soundtracks - including the main song for the Chilean film El Leyton, a film by famed director Gonzalo Justiniano, of the films B-Happy (2003), Amnesia (1994), and Caluga o Menta (1990). They have also performed in tribute albums to Victor Jara, Violeta Parra, and Los Prisioneros.
Drago Bonacich of the All Music Guide says:
Chilean punk rock band los Miserables was formed in the early '90s by singer and drummer Claudio, guitarist Patricio, bass player Amapola, and vocalist and guitar player Fiko. The band was strongly influenced by acts such as the Clash, Dead Kennedys, and Rage Against the Machine. In the beginning, their lyrics were mainly focused on controversial and political issues, later getting less delicate subjects without compromising their music style. los Miserables was invited to participate in the 1999's Raras Tocatas Nuevas, a rock festival promoted by one of the major local radio stations. In the year 2000, the band made a cover of "Paramar" to be included in los Prisioneros' tribute album.
