[edit] History
Nadie formed in April 1994 with bass, drums and two guitars and mixing music styles like hardcore, punk and ska.
In 1995, the members decide to change the type of music they played, so their new songs sounded stronger and more strident, getting closer to hardcore punk.
In 1996, the band recorded its first album, Nadie ("No-one"), which contains 16 tracks. The album was released and distributed in Medellín, Manizales, Cali and Bogotá. The same year the band performed with popular Colombian bands Cuidado con la begonias, 1%, Birra, I.R.A., Neus, Censura, Contraorden, Danny Dodge, and Angeles con la cara sucia.
In 1999 the second guitarist and the drummer left the band and the remaining members decided to take a break. A year later, Julián Velásquez decided to restart the band. In 2000, with Juan David Márquez and Juan Felipe Correa, the new drummer, the band began to compose the second album: Carne trémula ("Tremulous Flesh"). This album is closer to rock and roll and uses saxophone in some of its 10 tracks but keeps the strength that has always distinguished the band. This album was recorded at the end of 2001 in Siamesis Audio Studio by Julián Velazquez, and it was released at the beginning of 2002. Following this launch, the band shot videos for the songs: Carne trémula and Emilio dice ("Emilio says").
In 2004, the band released Me sabe a sangre el corazón (“My heart tastes like blood”), a single with five tracks produced by the band;
