Cólera is a three piece punk rock band formed in 1979 in São Paulo. They are one of the oldest and most influential punk bands in Brazil. They play a very energetic and melodic form of punk with strong political and environmental themes in their lyrics.
The band continued with great success, until the death of bassist, vocalist and main songwriter Redson in 2011. A concert held in his homage was made with other notorious punks from Brazil like João Gordo And Clemente (Inocentes).
The remaining members decided to continue with Wendel Barros assuming the vocals and former member (from when Redson played the guitar) Valdemir Pinheiro on the bass.
The band tour to this day, with their latest release being an live split with the scottish band The Zips and the portuguese Razor Kids. Still being one of the biggest punk acts of the country.

Wendel - Vocals (2012-)
Valdemir Pinheiro - Bass (1980-1988;2012-)
Fábio Bellucci - Guitars (2014-)
