Retaguardia's lyrics often have a nationalist character and critisize present democratic society. For this reason their performances have occasionally attracted controversy among the communities in which their concert would take place.
The music itself can be described as thrash / death metal, with grunt vocals and a lot of guitar solos. Their main influences are Slayer, Dimmu Borgir, Batallón de Castigo, Hatebreed, and many other bands within the hardcore metal genre.
The current line-up is:
Marc - vocals
Liber - guitar
Albert - guitar
