A band from Brazil's capital that found its voice in new wave textures and songs that stuck around.
For a sense of their range, put on 'Primeiros Erros (Chove)' and then something like 'Eu Nunca Disse Adeus'. They're different moods from the same band that figured out how to last.
They came out of Brasília in 1982 playing a kind of post-punk and new wave that felt separate from the main Brazilian rock scene. The 1989 album 'Todos os Lados' changed that, with 'Primeiros Erros (Chove)' becoming one of those songs everyone knows. You can hear that persistence in later tracks like 'Eu Vou Estar' from their top songs list.
They formed in 1982 and kept working through a sound that wasn't quite in step with the rest of Brazilian rock at the time. The breakthrough came with 'Todos os Lados' in 1989, and they've kept recording since, through lineup changes and albums like 2013's 'Saturno'.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
