El Niño Gusano was an influential Spanish indie pop/rock band hailing from Zaragoza, Aragón, formed in the early 1990s. The band had a unique and surreal approach to songwriting and presentation, mixing witty, often bizarre lyrics with melodic tunes that combined elements of pop, psychedelic rock, and folk. Their imaginative storytelling and distinctive musical style quickly garnered them a dedicated fan base in the Spanish indie scene.

The band's lineup consisted of Sergio Algora (vocals), Andrés Perruca (drums), Javier Vicente (guitar), and Sergio Vinadé (keyboards). Their music journey is punctuated by critically acclaimed albums and memorable songs that showcased their idiosyncratic exploration of life's eccentricities. Albums like "El Escarabajo Más Grande de Europa" and "Fantástico Entre Los Pinos" are considered landmarks in their discography. Posthumously, fans have been treated to reissued and special editions of their work, such as "El Efecto Lupa (Edición Especial)", which solidifies their enduring impact on the Spanish alternative music landscape. "Circo Luso", "Mr. Camping", and "Palencia EP" are further testaments to their robust creative vision. Despite their disbandment in the late 90s and the untimely passing of lead singer Sergio Algora in 2008, El Niño Gusano remains an iconic ensemble, their music continue to resonate and inspire new generations of music enthusiasts.
