A five-piece from Guarulhos whose absurd humor and catchy songs became a national phenomenon in the mid-90s.
If you want to understand their appeal, start with 'Robocop Gay' and 'Não Peide Aqui, Baby'. They're the perfect mix of catchy melody and pure, unapologetic silliness.
They captured something specific about Brazilian youth culture in the mid-90s with songs that were genuinely funny and impossible to ignore. A track like 'Robocop Gay' wasn't just a novelty, it was a pop-rock earworm with lyrics that made you laugh out loud. Their sudden, tragic end in a 1996 plane crash froze that moment in time, which is why their songs still get regular play decades later.
They formed near São Paulo in the early 1990s and released their self-titled debut album in 1995. That record, with hits like 'Pelados em Santos' and 'Vira-Vira', turned them into a national phenomenon almost overnight. Their career lasted just over a year before the plane crash that killed all five members.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
