Fobia is a Mexican rock band from Mexico City, whose career started in 1987, a time when there wasn't much promotion of rock music in Mexico.
In December 1987, RCA Ariola de México promoted a famous battle of amateur rock bands: "Rock en tu idioma" (Rock in your language). In the said battle Fobia were eliminated early on, the second place went to a band named "Pedro y las tortugas" and the winners were "Los Amantes de Lola".
Notwithstanding their elimination, executives in Ariola decided to schedule an appointment. According to legend, they weren't able to enter into Ariola's building because of a confusion with security.
