Career

A year later, the group signed up to CNR and released an EP called Las Paticas de la Abuela (Grandma's Little Feet), followed by the band's first album, Cuentos Para Adultos (Tales for Adults), in 1994. Performing a mixture of Latin punk and pop rock, Caramelos de Cianuro returned in 1996 with Harakiri City, released by Polygram. Two years later, original drummer Pablo Mart?nez was replaced by Alfonso Tosca, and the group soon toured along with Colombian band Aterciopelados. In 2000 they released their album Miss Mujerzuela (Miss Whore), which achieved platinum status in Venezuela in 2001.

In 2002, Caramelos de Cianuro released their album called Frisbee, which featured "El ?ltimo Polvo", a song where its subject sought one last night of sex from his estranged girlfriend. This song's video got into MTV Latin America's Top Ten. In 2005, Luis Barrios left the band and P?vel Tello joined the band's line up shortly afterwards. In 2006 they released their most recent album, Flor De Fuego, (Flower of Fire) with Como Serpiente (Like Snake) being promoted as the lead off single.
