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.
San Valentin
Eslabon Armado Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Que fueras solamente para mí
Tantas horas y las rosas que te di
Fuiste mi primer amor que nunca olvidaré
Pero la neta que sí me rompiste
Te pedí ser mi novia y me negaste
Quiero sentir lo que es estar solo
En mi cuarto viendo fotos desde hace tiempo
El tomar y fumar no da el dolor
Espero encuentres alguien que sí te cuide
Porque eso te ofrecí y lo sabes
Hice todo lo posible en quedar bien
No tengo a nadie con quien me pueda expresar
Solo yo aguanto el dolor en mi cama
Sentimientos que ahorita voy a soltar
Quiero llorar, quiero gritar todo hacia el viento
Quiero sentir lo que es estar solo
En mi cuarto viendo fotos desde hace tiempo
El tomar y fumar no da el dolor
El tomar y fumar no da el dolor
In Eslabon Armado's song San Valentin, the singer reflects on his experience asking a girl to be his girlfriend on Valentine's Day. He recalls giving her roses and spending hours with her, expressing how she was his first love that he will never forget. However, he then reveals that she ultimately rejected him, causing him immense pain and heartbreak. The singer expresses his overwhelming emotions by saying he wants to cry and scream into the wind, not finding solace in drinking or smoking. He hopes that the girl is able to find someone who will take care of her, as he had offered to do so at one point. The singer has nowhere to turn, feeling alone and inexpressible, finally releasing his bottled-up feelings.
The song's lyrics tell a relatable story of heartbreak and unrequited love, capturing the emotional journey of a person who has experienced rejection. The singer expresses his intense pain and sorrow through the song, revealing his vulnerability to the listener. One can feel the pain and void from his voice, which makes the song more relatable to anyone who has been through a similar experience.

Aquí estamos otra ves , ya es 14
Denle para adelante y recuerden que no vale la pena llorar por alguien que no te quiere
La persona indicada no te hará llorar y te tratara como su mundo y no como su amigo
Denle tiempo al tiempo bros
@EslabonArmado
Quiero llorar!!!
