They began playing in the mid-nineties in Mexico City, as a parody of the glamorous style of many 80's bands like Poison and Mötley Crüe; it began as a side project to the members' original bands, but eventually became quite popular among members of the Mexican alternative scene. With the coming to the mainstream of many underground interests, they became widely popular.
They launched their mainstream debut CD, Resurrección in 2001. This album re-awakened the Mexican feeling for wannabe Pop Rock, and quickly gained popularity with their first single "Márchate Ya" and the later "Isabel". In November 2004 they launched Detector de Metal, whose first single Muriendo Lento featuring female pop singer Belinda, was a huge hit that gave Moderatto massive appeal. Since the launch of Detector de Metal, the band has been giving huge concerts that have been completely sold out in Mexico's most important arenas, like the Auditorio Nacional and Teatro Metropolitan.
Moderatto released a new album at the end 2006 titled ¡GRRRR!. The first single off of ¡GRRRR! is Sentimettal, which in 3 weeks climbed all the way to #3 in the Mexican Top 40.
Despite perceiving themselves as metal, members of the band have received the criticism of some metal fans who said than the band is more pop rock.
Following Sentimettal, Moderatto released their next single, Si Mi Delito Es Rockear (Me Declaro Culpable).
On 2008 the Queremos Rock comes out, it includes 8 songs written by them and 2 covers.
Carisma their last studio album, was released in October 2012. With singles Entrégate and Gracias being a success.

The lyrics to Moderatto's song "Feliz Navidad" are a simple yet joyful message celebrating the Christmas holiday season. The Spanish phrase "Feliz Navidad" translates to "Merry Christmas" in English, and the lyrics repeat this phrase throughout the song. The phrase "Prospero Ano y Felicidad" translates to "Prosperous Year and Happiness," adding to the positive and hopeful tone of the song.
The song begins with a repeating chorus of "Feliz Navidad" four times followed by "Prospero Ano y Felicidad" also repeated four times. The repetition of the chorus emphasizes the joy and excitement of the holidays. The verse then switches to English, with the singer expressing their desire to wish the listener a Merry Christmas "from the bottom of my heart." The chorus then repeats in both Spanish and English.
