Background notes
Archive material and source history
Anttena formed in Rio de Janeiro in 1986 with Paulo Ricardo on vocals, Roberto Barros and Flávio Fernandes on guitars, Humberto Effe on bass, and Pedro Farah on drums. Their debut single "Longe de Casa" became an immediate hit, launching the band into Brazilian pop consciousness with its blend of pop, rock, and electronic elements.
The band faced accusations of being unpatriotic, though they continued releasing music, including the 1987 album "Noite das Máscaras."
Their sound evolved over subsequent albums like "Eu Sou o Rio" (1989) and "Curto-Circuito" (1991), incorporating funk, soul, and reggae influences. The band experienced lineup changes and periods of inactivity, but their catalog includes seven studio albums through 1996.
