Editor's note

Facada, São Paulo's confrontational punk voice

A Brazilian hardcore band whose lyrics tackled social tensions in the late 1980s.

For a sense of their sound, 'Set Fire In The Bomb' and 'Amanhã Vai Ser Pior' frame it well.

Their song 'Amanhã Vai Ser Pior' captured a specific mood of disillusionment in Brazil at the time. Tracks like 'Set Fire In The Bomb' and 'Eu Sou In' reflected an aggressive, direct style that later punk and hardcore bands often cited. Their live shows and material frequently ran into trouble with authorities, which added to their reputation.

Facada formed in São Paulo in 1986, with João Gordo on vocals. They released albums quickly, including 'Facada' in 1986, 'Massacre' in 1987, and 'Brutal Holocaust' in 1988, and kept recording into the early 1990s with 'Disco Facada' and 'Viva Ned Kelly'.
