Desaparecido is the first full-length studio album by the Italian rock band Litfiba, though the band had previously released five EPs or singles and a soundtrack album, Eneide di Krypton. The music is very British new wave-influenced, though the lyrics are in Italian.[2]
It is the first part of the "Trilogy of power": a group of albums whose main theme is the rejection of violence and totalitarianism. The sound combines new wave influences with a taste for typically Mediterranean melody, a characteristic strongly sought after by the band at the time. The complex lyrics often have a dreamlike and lysergic component, and are characterized by the use of metaphor.
