Los Nikis (The Polo Shirts) was a Spanish pop-punk group of the 80's that were associated with la Movida. They come with songs that feature very simple music and humorous lyrics. Founded 1979 in a suburbia from Algete which lies in the comarca de Alcalá in the autonomous community of the Community of Madrid. They are known as "The Ramones Of Algete". Los Nikis were capable to create a good collection of tunes with just four chords and seven notes. Two brothers from the drummer Rafa Cabello created Discos Lollipop label and, logically, Los Nikis released on this label some signature songs from their career. In 1983, Rafa Cabello leaves the band and entered Johnny Canut, Nacho Canut's brother, ex-"Dinarama". In 1985 they signed for 3 Cipreses/DRO and released three albums before they split-up in 1989. In the nineties they recorded a new album, "Más De Lo Mismo", that closes the band's history. Nowadays, only Joaquín Rodríguez is active as part of "Los Acusicas".
