Reset came out of Brazil in the 1990s with a sound built for protest. Their song 'A Matter Of Rights' became an anthem for that moment, and tracks like 'Choke' carried that same direct, charged energy. They played benefit concerts and used their shows as part of the conversation, keeping their platform tied to the streets.
The group formed around Tico Santa Cruz on vocals, Fernando Deluqui on guitar, Emerson Villa on bass, and Beto Lee on drums. They put out albums like their self-titled debut in 1994, followed by 'Into the Fire' in 1996 and 'Loud and Clear' in 1998. Their music stayed focused on themes of resistance throughout.
