A São Paulo band that mixed progressive rock, alternative metal, and psychedelic folk across five albums in the late 1990s and 2000s.
For their experimental style, try 'Política Nacional Das Linhas Tortas (Viva Mariana)' or 'Índigo.' The latter's one of their top tracks.
They built a following with intricate arrangements and an unconventional approach that kept them respected in Brazilian alternative circles. Songs like 'Índigo' and 'Mera Distração' show their mix of progressive rock and alternative metal with psychedelic folk touches. The single '7/8 de Opção' from 1999 uses an unusual time signature and became known for its introspective lyrics.
Mago Trapus formed in São Paulo in the late 1990s with Marcio Treviso and Maurício Pereira on guitars, Júlio Andrade on bass, and Bruno Vianna on drums. They put out five albums, including 2003's 'Noite com os Mortos,' and toured Brazil and some international festivals.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
