Ricardo Mollo (vocals, guitar) and Diego Arnedo (bass guitar) joined drummer Gustavo Collado to form a band named "La División" (The Division), which would be later called "Divididos".

However, the group soon rose to prominence in the history of Argentine rock with a very different album, Acariciando lo áspero (Caressing the rough), released in 1991, and then consolidating further in 1993 with their politically committed next album, La era de la boludez (The age of idiocy),[2] and in 1995 with the psychedelic and experimental Otroletravaladna (flesruoykcufog).

Other than founding members Mollo and Arnedo, different drummers have completed the normal trio: Gustavo Collado (1988–1990); Federico Gil Solá (1990–1995); Jorge Araujo (1995–2004); and since 2004, Catriel Ciavarella.

[2] The band has recorded a number of covers, such as Voodoo Child by Jimi Hendrix and Light My Fire by The Doors.

In their shows, Divididos has played songs such as "Rock and Roll" and "Moby Dick" (Led Zeppelin), and "Little Wing" (Jimi Hendrix).
