The cover art, created by Franco Médici under band leader Ricardo Iorio's direction, features symbolic imagery representing Argentine society.

Aiming to replicate the international success of Brazil's Sepultura, Radio Trípoli attempted to translate Hermética's songs into English, but abandoned the idea after a testing recording.

After a pair of failed projects, bassist and leader Ricardo Iorio started a new thrash metal band, Hermética, with guitarist Antonio Romano (from Cerbero), drummer Fabián Spataro and singer Claudio O'Connor (both from Mark).

However, the final years of the presidency of Raúl Alfonsín saw a severe economic crisis, caused by rampant hyperinflation.

[4] Hermética received a proposal of Luis Alacran, editor of the fanzine Rebelion Rock, to record the album independently.

Following instructions by Iorio, he made a cover that resembles oil paintings, while making subtle references to the lyrics of the songs.

After a testing recording of "Desterrando a los oscurantistas" in English, the results were considered a failure and the label abandoned the idea.
