Cólera

Cólera is a Brazilian punk rock band formed in October 1979 in São Paulo, by the brothers Redson (guitar and lead vocals) and Pierre (drums) and their friend Val (bass guitar).[1] They are currently one of the oldest punk bands in activity in Brazil, with a career that spans almost 30 years. They have toured Europe three times, in 1987, 2004 and 2008.
