Hermética is the self-titled debut studio album by Argentine thrash metal band Hermética. Following failed negotiations with EMI, Hermética signed with the independent label Radio Trípoli. The band recorded the album at Estudios Sonovisión and released it in November 1989. The cover art, created by Franco Médici under band leader Ricardo Iorio's direction, features symbolic imagery representing Argentine society. Aiming to replicate the international success of Brazil's Sepultura, Radio Trípoli attempted to translate Hermética's songs into English, but abandoned the idea after a testing recording.
