Heroes del Silencio started in 1984 as a band named Zumo de Vidrio. The original members were Enrique Bunbury, Juan Valdivia and his brother, and Pedro Andreu. Bunbury was originally a bass player but after Juan Valdivia heard him singing a David Bowie song and told him that he had a great voice, Bunbury became the vocalist. Later on, Joaquin Cardiel joins the line-up.
The band changed their name to Heroes del Silencio in 1986. At first they played in public places and made demos but their break came when they participated in a music contest in Salamanca and won second place - an EMI producer, Gustavo Montesano, saw the band in the contest and some time later, at a concert in Sala En Bruto, he signed the band.
Their first EP, Héroe de Leyenda, was released in in 1987 and sold 30,000 copies. The following year, the album El Mar No Cesa was released, featuring the songs "Mar Adentro", "Agosto" and "El Estanque", and sold 100,000 copies. The supporting tour followed in 1989, documented on the limited edition live album En Directo.
In 1990 they released Senderos de Traicion, their best-selling album with 2 million copies, including 400,000 copies in the first two weeks in Spain alone. The following year they started the tour "Senda 91" and released another live album, Senda 91. 1992 saw the most important CD in their career, El Espiritu del Vino. They sold 600,000 copies of this album which was played throughout America. They followed this with a tour for El Espiritu del Vino. In 1993, Alan Bogulavsky joined the band.
Due to tensions within the band, they took a hiatus and went to Benasque to take a vacation and heal the rifts within the group. After this break they gained a new producer, Bob Ezrin (Lou Reed, Pink Floyd, Peter Gabriel, Alice Cooper, Kiss, etc.) and in 1995 released Avalancha, widely considered their best album. Avalancha was more hard rock than previous albums, with songs like "Avalancha", "Deshacer El Mundo" and "Iberia Sumergida". The album was followed by the "Avalancha" tour in 1995 and 1996, which produced the live album Para Siempre.
The band split in 1996 though this did not prevent the release of the Rarezas album in 1998.
2007 Reunion tour
20 years after their first album, and 10 years after they split up, the band announced a ten concerts reunion tour, taking in Guatemala City, Buenos Aires, Monterrey, Ciudad de México, Los Ángeles, Sevilla, Zaragoza and Valencia. For this tour, guitarist Gonzalo Valdivia (Juan Valdivia's brother) replaced former band member Alan Bogulavsky. More than 10,000 people attended each concert. The tour was followed by another live album, Tour 2007.
After the tour, singer-songwriter Enrique Bunbury announced the definitive split of the band and that he would be focusing in his solo career.
Flor Venenosa
Héroes del Silencio Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Y a veces siento
Que el pensamiento
Es un idioma de signos sin sentido
No siempre entiendo qué sucede conmigo
Zarandeándome voy
Hasta que caigo
Tan solo déjame estar
Un momento a solas
Tan solo déjame en paz
Este intervalo de tiempo
Que siempre he estado perdiendo
Quizás en este precioso momento
Pueda ser
Como tú, como tú, como tú, como tú
Prefiero explotar de tanto alcohol
Con tu jarabe de flor venenosa
Y vender a una madre
Por otra copa
Tan solo déjame estar
Un momento a solas
Tan solo déjame en paz
Este intervalo de tiempo
Que siempre he estado perdiendo
Quizás en este precioso momento
Pueda ser
Como tú, como tú, como tú, como tú
The first verse of the song "Flor Venenosa" by Héroes Del Silencio talks about the difficulty in finding the right words to express oneself. It seems as if thoughts are communicated through unintelligible signs, making it harder to understand what is occurring internally. The second verse describes the feeling of being shaken and pushed around without a clear direction, leading to being hopelessly drunk. The chorus begs for a moment alone, a moment of peace, and a chance to seize the moment- "Maybe in this precious moment, I can be like you."
Moving to the next verses, the singer admits that they would rather drink themselves to death with the poison from their lover's lips than care about anyone else, even to the point of selling their own mother for just another drink. The chorus repeats again, with the implication that the desire for separation from the world around them is the only way the singer can find happiness, even if it is just for a moment.
Overall, the song speaks to the human desire for personal escape from the world around us, and the lengths people will go to achieve it, even if just for a moment of peace. It also explores the destructive nature of addiction and the harmful actions people are willing to take to satisfy their vices.
