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.

On September 28, 2011, Redson died from stomach bleeding at the age of 49. Cólera continues to play with a new formation: Wendel Barros on vocals and Cacá Saffiotti on guitar. In July 2016, their 1986 album Pela Paz em Todo o Mundo was elected by Rolling Stone Brasil as the 2nd best Brazilian punk rock album.[2]
