During the 1980s they experienced success around Spain and the Americas, and in various European countries including Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, France, Yugoslavia, and Portugal.

They established themselves as one of the major contributors to the Rock en español scene and are considered to be one of the all-time best bands in that genre.

When the lead singer Enrique Bunbury started a solo project, other members of the band also followed a different musical path.

The band's distinctiveness was a very characteristic image with a very particular iconography and symbology, and a music characterized by ambiguous and transcendental lyrics, complicated arpeggios and a solid rhythmic base.

[3][4] In 2021 Netflix premiered the documentary "Heroes: Silencio and Rock & Roll" which covers the entire history of the band as told by the members.

Due to tensions within the band, Héroes del Silencio took a hiatus and went to Benasque to take a vacation and heal the rifts within the group.

After this break they acquired a new producer, Bob Ezrin (Lou Reed, Pink Floyd, Peter Gabriel, Alice Cooper, Kiss, etc.)

[5] In 1990 Senderos de Traición was a successful second release for Heroes, "combining Celtic guitars [and] metal rhythms.

The album was recorded in London, including English versions of "Entre Dos Tierras" and "Maldito Duende".

[9] In 1993, after the success of Senderos de Traición, the band recorded their third album called El Espíritu del Vino which was produced by Phil Manzanera.

Alan Boguslavsky joined the band in the tour named El Camino Del Exceso, during which they played in countries including Germany, Austria, Portugal, Italy, Mexico, Argentina, U.S.A., Chile, Finland and Hungary.

Alan Boguslavsky, baptized "el Azteca de oro" (Spanish: The Golden Aztec), entered the band officially, being credited as co-composer of several songs although he did not appear in the promotional photos for the album.

The final concert of Héroes del Silencio was meant to take place in Los Angeles but it was canceled because the crowd was angry at the band after rumors of their split.

[citation needed] Héroes said goodbye in Spain with the mythical phrase: "Nos vemos en la gira del proximo milenio.

Before concluding the tour, and in a press conference in Lima, Peru, Héroes del Silencio reported their temporary separation.

The deaths of two persons very close to the group as well influenced the band's morale: their road manager Martin Druille in 1993, and Enrique's brother, Rafael, in 1994.

The deluxe box set included both DVD and CD as well as a backstage pass, some drumsticks, a t-shirt, and two posters.
