Artaud (album)
''Artaud'' (; commonly pronounced by hispanophones) is a studio album credited to Argentine rock band Pescado Rabioso, released in October 1973 on Talent-Microfón. It is essentially the second solo album by singer-songwriter Luis Alberto Spinetta, who used the group's name despite their disbandment earlier that year.

The album's original packaging is famous for its odd shape, which the record label initially resisted. Spinetta presented Artaud with two morning shows at the Teatro Astral on Avenida Corrientes, accompanied only by his acoustic guitar. Each audience member received a copy of Spinetta's manifesto ''Rock: Música dura, la suicidada por la sociedad'', in which he presented his vision of the countercultural Argentine rock movement. It is considered Spinetta's masterpiece and one of the most influential albums in Spanish-language rock music. It has bee ...
