Eslabon Armado was founded in 2017 by Two brother and One teen friends: lead vocalist and requinto guitarist Pedro Tovar (also the band's songwriter), guitarist/harmony vocalist Gabriel Hidalgo, and acoustic bassist/bajoloche player Brian Tovar, who also sings harmony. As individuals, the trio's members were deeply influenced by the music of their parents' generation. Before branching out to write original material, they'd studied and played rancheras and norteño music since they were small children. As teens, however, they absorbed the inspiration of sierreña music as played by its most important practitioner: the late, chart-topping Regional Mexican artist Ariel Camacho with Los Plebes del Rancho. After his passing in 2015, a gap remained in the genre. When Eslabon Armado formed (they were named by Pedro and Bryan's father, an amateur songwriter), they pursued a slightly different approach. They sought to create an alternative music that melded various instruments, all while based on the guitar approach of the sierra style. The trio released live videos to YouTube and other social media channels. Unbeknownst to them, their videos and songs had been heard by Del Records' boss and impresario, Ángel del Villar. He sought them out and signed them before any other label could.
The band's first single and video for "Con Tus Besos" (a song Pedro Tovar felt was not up to snuff) was issued in late March 2020. It peaked at number 21 on the Hot Latin Songs charts and at 16 on the Latin Streaming Songs list a week later. In May, Eslabon Armado issued their debut long player, Tu Veneno Mortal. The ten-song set, which wove mariachi and banda horns into some songs, entered the Regional Mexican albums chart at number two -- it eventually reached number one -- and the Top Latin Albums list at seven. The group followed the release in June with the non-album single and video "La Trokita." The latter rang up over a million views in its first two weeks of release.
Vibras de Noche
Just five months later, they followed with the 14-song Vibras de Noche, which reached number one at both Latin Albums and Mexican Regional Albums and peaked at 18 on the Top 200. In December, they struck again with the 22-track Corta Venas, their third chart-topping Mexican Regional Albums entry in three tries; the recording also placed at two on the Latin Albums list and reached number 56 on the Top 200.
Fui Lejos

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Porque yo te quiero y vengo a decirte
Fui lejos pa' verte, resulta no querías nada con mi ser
Tenía fe pues porque me ilusionaste
Solo yo no hay nadie que te hará sentir más bien, verdad
No sé qué escondes, me mata que hablas con tu ex
Pero no estaré mejor
Nadie me ha rompido el corazón
Así como me lo hiciste tú, mi amor
Llorando siento el dolor
2000 millas, regresé mucho peor
Fui pa' allá solo para ser tu novio
Te importa la gente porque hablan, critican, te pones mal
Baby, ya tú sabrás por qué no te gusta
Fue real mi parte, solo quise hacerte feliz y vibrar
Nada más yo intenté, hice lo imposible
Quiero que escuches la canción
La que tanto te cantaba en el carro
Tú bien sabes la que dice 1004
Me pierdes y ni modo, créeme que te deseo de lo mejor
Pero como yo no encontrarás otro
The lyrics to Eslabon Armado's song Fui Lejos reflect an individual's longing for a love that is not reciprocated. The song starts with the singer asking his love interest about her feelings towards him. He confesses his love and admits that he travelled far just to see her, but she did not feel the same way. The singer had faith in their relationship because he was led on by his lover but was ultimately let down. He believes that he is the only one who can make his lover feel complete, but he is confused about what she is hiding from him. He is hurt that she talks to her ex, which makes him feel insecure and puts a strain on their relationship.
The chorus suggests that the singer is heartbroken and feels worse off than before, even though no one has hurt him as his lover has. He had travelled a long distance just to be with her and be her boyfriend, but it seems as if the relationship is over, and he returns home feeling bad.
The singer tells his lover that she cares too much about what people say and how they perceive her. He reminds her that he only wanted to make her happy and to experience joy with her, but in the end, he was unsuccessful. He hopes that she will listen to the song that he used to sing to her, which made her feel special.
Overall, Fui Lejos is a sad love song that touches on themes of heartbreak, unrequited love, and longing for someone who doesn't love us back.

[Letra de "Fui Lejos"]
Oye que sientes por mi dime
Porque yo te quiero
Y vengo a decirte
Fui lejos pa' verte resulta no querias nada con mi ser
Tenía fe, pues porque me ilusionaste
Solo yo no hay nadie que te hara sentir mas bien verdad yo se
Que escondes, me mata que hablas con tu ex
Pero no estaré mejor nadie me ha rompído el corazón
Así como me lo hiciste tu mi amor
Llorando siento el dolor, 2,000 millas regresé mucho peor
Fui pa' alla solo para ser tu novio
Te importa la gente porque hablan critican te pones mal
Vive ya tu sabras por que no te gusta
Fue real mi parte solo quise hacerte feliz y vibrar nada mas
Yo intenté hice lo imposible
Quiero que escuches la canción la que tanto te cantaba en el carro
Tú bien sabes la que dice 1004
