Background notes
Archive material and source history
Their music channeled punk's raw energy into lyrics that directly addressed poverty, police brutality, and working-class exploitation.
Despite this, or perhaps because of it, "Exploração" connected with many Brazilians and became something of an anthem. Other songs like "Garota 77" and "Rotina Alcoólica" appeared on later albums such as "P.A.T.O." in 1985 and "Terra da Garoa" in 2007.
The core lineup featured Edgard Scandurra on vocals and guitar, Fabio Grant on bass, and Luiz Antônio "Luizão" Gomes on drums. Their music never softened its political edge, continuing to document social tensions through tracks like "Joãozinho Podre" and "O Pecador."
