Editor's note

X Galinha, São Paulo's straightforward rock band

A Brazilian rock group from Vila Madalena known for unpolished songs like "Marlboro".

For a quick sense of their style, try "Marlboro" or "Ninguém Dá Um Ovo". Both songs capture that straightforward rock feel they never lost.

X Galinha's music has a direct, no-frills quality that resonated with listeners tired of overproduced rock. Their 1999 song "Marlboro" became a signature track despite its controversial take on smoking addiction. Songs like "Ninguém Dá Um Ovo" and "Sandra É Um Cara" blend rock with Brazilian touches in a way that feels honest and lived-in.

The band formed in 1997 in São Paulo's Vila Madalena and released their self-titled debut the next year. They put out five studio albums between 1998 and 2012, including O Último Dia in 2000 and Salve a Raça in 2006, keeping their sound consistently raw and unpretentious.
