Somos Los Hijos Del Rock is the twenty-fourth studio album by the Puerto Rican boy band Menudo, released in 1987 by the Melody label. The group’s lineup included members: Ricky Martin, Raymond Acevedo, Sergio Blass, and new members Ralphy Rodríguez and Rubén Gómez. Ralphy replaced Charlie Massó and Ruben Gómez replaced Robby Rosa.
The album was produced with the intention of renewing Menudo both visually and musically, and produced the successful single "Y Te Veré - A Las Tres," which appeared on the Billboard magazine's Hot Latin Songs chart.
In 1987, an album titled In Action was released in the Philippines, featuring versions in English and Tagalog of various Menudo songs, including three tracks from Somos Los Hijos Del Rock: "Estamos En Acción" ("Action"), "Mi Sombra En La Pared - Bailo Con Mi Sombra" ("My Shadow On The Wall"), and "Dame Más" ("Gimme More"). In the same year, an album aimed at the U.S. market was released, titled Sons of Rock, featuring new songs, though it carried a similar name to the Spanish-language album.
