Editor's note

Saco de Ratos, Lisbon's street-level punk with ska edges

A Portuguese hardcore band that mixed punk with ska and reggae, staying rooted in Lisbon's streets since the late 1990s.

For their sound, try 'Augusto Sérgio.' For their lyrical approach, 'Tudo Sagrado' gives you the idea.

They formed in Lisbon in the late 1990s playing a mix of hardcore punk with ska and reggae elements. Their lyrics often dealt with social issues without softening their stance, and songs like 'Augusto Sérgio' show their straightforward approach. The track 'Tudo Sagrado' is typical of their direct style.

Their debut album was called 'Garagem,' followed by records like '100% Punk' and 'Dizer Não.' Pedro Peixoto handled vocals from the beginning, though the lineup shifted over time. They stayed active in the Portuguese punk scene without chasing mainstream acceptance.
