The São Paulo band formed in 1989 and kept going after Renato Russo's death in 1996.
For a sense of their early sound, 'Cidade pacata' works. Later, something like 'Ingenuous' shows where they went.
XTR's catalog holds songs that became part of Brazil's rock conversation in the early '90s. 'Cidade pacata' and 'Ciranda' are still played. Their story is tied to the city's scene and to what happened after Russo left the stage.
They started in São Paulo in 1989 with Russo, Bonfá, Magalhães, and Miklos. The debut 'Circo Musical' arrived in 1990, then 'Yo Soy' and 'Transistor' followed. After 1996, the remaining members kept releasing albums like 'A Lenda' and 'Estranho Coração'.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
