Arkano was an obscure and early Death Metal band from Peru, formed in 1988 as a Thrashcore band but later changed to Death Metal. The line-up was David Hinostroza on guitars, Sergio Hinostroza on bass, Daniel De la Cruz on vocals and Jorge "Coco" Valderrama on drums, later replaced by Fernando Mortis (Kranium). They only recorded a rehearsal tape and split up in the early 90s.
