A short-lived but potent band that blended punk energy with Mexican folk traditions.
Start with 'Comodismo' to hear what made them an anthem band, then try 'Impaciente' for their melodic rock side. 'Nunca É Tarde' shows why their songs kept finding listeners years later.
Their song 'Comodismo' became an anthem for questioning social apathy in 1980s Mexico, with lyrics that drew attention from authorities who found their messages provocative. Tracks like 'Impaciente' and 'Fora do tempo' showed how they mixed rock energy with melodic hooks while staying grounded in their surroundings. Even after their brief recording career ended, songs like 'Nunca É Tarde' and 'Lírios E vícios' kept finding listeners who appreciated their direct approach.
D'Gradados formed in Mexico City in the early 1980s with Adolfo Osta on vocals and guitar, Javier Garza on bass, Carlos Parra on drums, and Eugenio Revueltas on keyboards. They released their first album 'Comodismo' in 1984, followed by three more records over the next few years including '20 a años de Rock' and 'Es difícil encontrar a alguien que te quiera'. Their recording career spanned just a few years in the mid-80s.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
