The band eventually broke up in 1996 and Bunbury started his solo career in 1997 with a techno album, Radical Sonora with his new band: Copi (piano), del Moran (bass), Ramón Gacias (drums) and former Héroes del Silencio guitarrist Alan Boguslavsky.
Recognized by his wish to always reinvent himself, Bunbury released in 1999 the album Pequeño, which sounded much different than anything he did before. His band also suffered changes, Boguslavsky was replaced by Rafa Domínguez, and the new faces, Ana Belén Estaje (violin), Luis Miguel Romero (percussion), Javier Iñigo, Javier García Vega & Antonio Ríos in the metal instruments.
This band was known as the "Huracán Ambulante" ("Rambling Hurricane") and recorded with Bunbury the rest of his solo discography, (except Antonio Ríos).
In 2005, after 8 years together, Bunbury dissolved the band and declared that will record a new album in 2006 only with his voice and a piano. Nevertheless, in early 2006 he recorded an album with spanish artist Nacho Vegas by the name of El tiempo de las cerezas.
His old band, Héroes del Silencio, reunited in 2007 for a short tour which visited Latin America, United States and Spain.

Enrique Bunbury Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
De nuestro amor apenas queda nada
Apenas ni palabras
Quedan
Queda solo es silencio que hace
Estallar la noche fría y larga
La noche que no acaba
Solo eso queda
Solo quedan las ganas de llorar
A ver que nuestro amor se aleja
Frente a frente bajamos la mirada
Pues ya no queda nada de que hablar
Nada
Solo quedan las ganas de llorar
A ver que nuestro amor se aleja
Frente a frente bajamos la mirada
Pues ya no queda nada de que hablar
Nada
Queda poca ternura que y alguna vez haciendo
Una locura un beso y a la fuerza
Queda
Queda un gesto amable para no hacer la vida
Insoportable y así ahogar las penas
Solo eso queda
Solo quedan las ganas de llorar
A ver que nuestro amor se aleja
Frente a frente bajamos la mirada
Pues ya no queda nada de que hablar
Nada
Solo quedan las ganas de llorar
A ver que nuestro amor se aleja
Frente a frente bajamos la mirada
Pues ya no queda nada de que hablar
Nada
The lyrics of Frente a frente by Enrique Bunbury are about a deteriorating relationship. The first verse talks about how little remains of their love, and all they have left is silence that "explodes" into the cold and long night. The second verse addresses the fact that they can't even look at each other anymore as there is nothing left to say.
The chorus repeats that all they have left is the desire to cry as their love disappears. The third verse talks about how there is only a small amount of tenderness and that all they have left is the memory of a moment when they acted on impulse, which forced a kiss. There is still a friendly gesture left to make life bearable but only to suffocate the pain. In essence, the song is a lamentation about the end of a once-beautiful relationship.
