Since December 2024, The Guatemalan Green Green Group began with the dissemination of its new musical proposal and launched If this is the end …the first single from a new album that will be published in the coming months.
According to Omar Méndez, a vocalist of the group, they chose with the rest of the members no longer to publish albums and for a time they focused on the dissemination of singles, such as Alone against the world and My old man, that were launched in 2022.
“We had originally decided not to make more records, just get a couple of Singles Every year, and thus stay in force because it was an easier process, considering that most people no longer listen to complete works, ”said Méndez.
“At present, not only against other music is competed, but against other applications or platforms such as Netflix and Tiktok, for example. Then, capture the attention of people with a complete album, we felt that it no longer applied for this time,” he added.
According to Omar Méndez, That strategy discarded in May 2023after The celebration of its 30 years of uninterrupted career Friday, because one of the original members returned to the band’s alignment.
“After the 30 years of the band, Mario Villanueva (guitarist) told me, as other times, that he wanted to return, so, as we do with everyone, we gave him a trial period to see if it was true. The answer was more than satisfactory because, unlike other occasions, this time something was in his interior and entered him, but with revenge, that is, he brought too many ideas of new songs.
According to Omar, Villanueva’s return to the group returned that undeniable chemistry that arises at the time of compositionas happened with the albums Ashes under your feet (1994) and Dark (1998). In addition, Villanueva composed issues that were included in Remedies for the soul (2001), but did not record them.
“When we composed again with Mario, those temptations and emotions began to sprout again, he inspired me again to write a lot of material. So, noting that we had a lot of music, many rolas, we said ‘Let’s make an album and what does the strategy matter,'” added the vocalist of the band.

If this is the end …
They say souls before coming to this world
They knew who their eternal love will be
And when they are going to die
Oh if this is the end
Take my hand and wake up
That this reality will disappear from your mind
If you were born
To millions of light years
Similarly
I would find you
Thanks to the light
In your heart
That illuminates
The universe
Oh if this is the end
Take my hand and wake up
That this reality will disappear from your mind
Oh if this is the end
Take my hand and take off
The feet of this cruel world
Fly away and go
Beyond pain
Save yourself
Don’t look back

I do not tell me like this
I do not tell me like this
I do not tell me like this
