A group that formed in 1994 and weathered lineup changes and controversy while building a catalog of sharp, blues-tinted rock songs.
For a sense of their range, try 'Cálice' for its sharper social commentary and 'Hellen' for something more personal. Both show Mollo's lyrics over that rock-with-punk-touch sound they've had since the start.
DAOS matters because they've been making rock with punk and blues touches since the mid-90s, and songs like 'Cálice' and 'Escola Pra Marginal' show how they handle social and personal themes without softening their sound. Their 2015 controversy over a performance that some felt promoted violence against women led to canceled shows and an apology, which remains part of their story. The band kept going after founding member Pablo Sbaraglia left in 2006 over creative differences, and they've put out albums like 'Radioteatro' and 'Unrock' that hold up.
They formed in La Plata in 1994 with Ricardo Mollo, Pablo Sbaraglia, and Diego Castex, and their self-titled debut came out in 1999. Sbaraglia left in 2006, and the group continued with new members, releasing later albums like 'Tantas Vidas' and 'Nena'. The 2015 performance controversy brought criticism and cancellations, but they apologized and kept working.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
