Visión rockera 1986–1988

Considered one of the first punk zines in Medellín, Visión rockera, edited by Olga Castrillón as a collective project, chronicled the life of rock music in Medellín during the second half of the 1980s. Serving as a precursor to the fanzine Nueva fuerza, also included in the RAPMM collection, Visión rockera sought to bring visibility to local bands and generate discussions about the rock scene in the city. Castrillón believed that sharing opinions on music and culture was crucial for the growth of the scene and for raising awareness of this countercultural movement. Some issues of the zine focused on strengthening the emerging independent music scene and explored the existence of national rock. Visión rockera also featured profiles of both local and international bands, including the Chilean group Los Prisioneros, as well as reviews of rock concerts in the areas surrounding Medellín. Additionally, it included translations of English-language interviews with bands such as Possessed, which had previously appeared in Metal mania.
