767 formed in São Paulo in the early 2000s, with founding members Augusto, Lipe, and Cauê. They came together around a raw punk sound and frustration with the city's social problems. Their music often took aim at institutions, most notably with the single 'Igreja Universal do Reino do Dinheiro,' which criticized the wealth and influence of evangelical mega-churches in Brazil.
They faced threats and physical attacks for their outspoken lyrics. Through it all, they kept making music, releasing albums like '767' in 2004, 'Dois' in 2006, and several more through 2018.
Their lineup expanded over time to include Fred on guitar and Bernardo on saxophone. While their sound drew from punk, it also incorporated elements of samba and rap across their records. They remained a consistent, provocative presence in Brazilian music for nearly two decades.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
