Caramelos De Cianuro

Latin rock foursome from Venezuela Caramelos de Cianuro recorded their first songs, "Nadando a Traves De la Galaxia" and "Tu Mama Te Va a Pegar," in 1992. A year later, the group signed up to CNR and released an EP called Las Patitas de la Abuela, followed by the band's first album, Cuentos Para Adultos, in 1994. Performing a mixture of Latin ska and pop/rock, Caramelos de Cianuro returned in 1996 with Harakiri City, released by Polygram. Two years later, original drummer Pablo Martínez was replaced by Alfonso Tosta, and the group soon toured along with Colombian Aterciopelados. In 2001, Caramelos de Cianuro's Miss Mujerzuela achieved platinum status in Venezuela.
