Background notes
Archive material and source history
Velho Kethos formed in Rio de Janeiro in 2007, with Thiago Abrahão on vocals, Guilherme Faria on guitar, André Bentes on bass, and Bruno Alves on drums. They started playing indie rock with some Brazilian rhythms mixed in, but it took a few years for them to find an audience. In 2011, they put out a song called 'Insistir Muito' that caught on with younger listeners. The lyrics touched on political frustration in Brazil, and the track sparked some debate about free speech at the time.
Their self-titled debut came out in 2010, followed by the 'Insistir Muito' album in 2011. They kept recording through the 2010s, with 'Mutante' arriving in 2014 and 'Tango' later that decade. The band's sound leaned toward the experimental side of rock, with nods to artists like Radiohead and Sonic Youth, but also some Brazilian touchstones like Tim Maia. They never became mainstream stars, but they built a following around records that felt a little rougher and more direct than a lot of what was on Brazilian radio.
