It was released on June 25, 2021, through DEL Records as a self-produced effort. It is the first album by the group since guitarist Gabriel Hidalgo's departure in 2020.

Background and writing

Following the release of Eslabon Armado's third studio album Corta Venas (2020), which became one of their best-performing albums, lead vocalist Pedro Tovar suffered from a writer's block, attaining no inspiration in writing and thought about hiring other songwriters.[1] After asking his manager, Ángel del Villar, for help, he rented a resort in Los Angeles for Tovar to "relax and feel inspired". While in his travel, he eventually felt inspired in writing again.[1] In 2021, it was announced that guitarist Gabriel Hidalgo had left the group after the remaining members, brothers Pedro and Brian Tovar, were relocating.[2]
