Tracklist:

The legendary heavy psych-stoner rock band, and pioneers of the Rock-En-Español movement in Puerto Rico during the 1990’s, Iglesia Atómica (Atomic Church), is back. Before California bands defined the genre, Iglesia Atómica pioneered the psychedelic stoner rock improvisational sound since August 1990.

After that long hiatus, 2017 saw the release of their debut album on South American Sludge Records in Argentina, and in 2018 released on a limited edition CD under the Clostridium Record label in Germany and in cassette on the also Argentinian label Piramide Records. 2018 brought yet another Iglesia Atomica release by the German label in the form of a limited edition compilation CD of unreleased material entitled »Impromptus«, and the much awaited second album, »Gran Muro de Coma«, digitally released in April 2018 by SAS and released in October that same year as a limited edition vinyl and CD release, remixed and remastered by the legendary sound engineer and drummer Joachim Heinz Ehrig AKA Eroc.
