Abstract: Rock band Clandestino’s performance in Montevideo, in May of 1988, dominated the daily and weekly newspapers’ covers of the time due to the subsequent imprisonment of its frontman. The presentation of the band and its consequences marked a break point in the history of rock in Uruguay. The political tensions that preceded the performance, the rock youngsters’ stigmatizing characterization by the press, and the discussion of conceptions about rock and punk rock as a social and cultural phenomenon allow to analyze the uncertainty about what might or might not be said publicly in the new democracy

Keywords : Uruguayan rock; punk rock; new democracy; Eighties; press.
