Ratto formed in Athens in 2003. Their 2009 album "13" brought them wider attention, and they've released several records since, including "Eros & Thanatos" in 2012 and "Pyre" in 2014. The band's lineup has included Angelos Missos on vocals and guitar.
Their songs like "Outro Lugar" and "Televisão" have a particular atmospheric quality. The music often gets described as introspective rock, with lyrics that lean into darker themes.
They've faced some criticism for being too bleak, but they've generally kept making the music they want to make. Later albums like "Katharsis" and "Elysian" continued in a similar vein.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
