Source-derived summary

Ratones Paranoicos (English: Paranoid Mice) is an Argentine rock band, formed in 1983 in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The group is influenced by rhythm and blues music, and their prime influence were the Rolling Stones, with whom they have shared Andrew Loog Oldham as a producer.

Members

It was originally formed by Juanse Gutiérrez (vocals and guitar), Pablo "Maldito" Memi (bass), Paul "Sarcófago" Cano (guitar) and Rubén "Roy" Quiroga (drums). In October 2007, Fabian "Von" Quintiero split from the band after being a member since 1997. In his place came Pablo Memi, returning to the original line-up. The band was once supported by Charly García. Former Rolling Stones guitarist Mick Taylor has appeared with them.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“Ratones Paranoicos” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Ratones, Paranoicos and Argentine provides the most credible route into that argument.

Evidence profile

The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 17, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q6317584. VIAF identifies the subject as 172300903. 2 of 3 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1983, 2007 and 1997.

Critical limits

Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
