Background notes
Archive material and source history
Lamento was a Brazilian musical collective formed in the early 1980s. Their 1983 album "Criaturas do Asfalto" gave them their most recognizable song, which became something of an anthem for marginalized urban communities. The band's lineup included Ronaldo Bastos on vocals, José Carlos Costa Neto on guitar, Luiz Carlos da Silva Junior on bass, and Claudio Martins on drums.
Their music pulled from rock, samba, and Brazilian popular music, with lyrics that often dealt directly with urban poverty and social injustice. This straightforward approach to difficult subjects sometimes drew criticism, but it also connected with listeners who recognized their own experiences in songs like "Dunkle Blumen" and "Efeito Bumerangue."
They released several albums through the 1980s, including "Lamento II," "Noite das Favelas," and "O Canto dos Malditos." The 2000 compilation "Antologia" collected material from their active years. Their sound had a raw, melancholic quality that felt grounded in the city streets they sang about.
