Rio rockers Gabriel Thomaz, Erika Martins, Melvin and Fabio Lima have been unleashing surfy garage-punk anthems lathered in fuzzy fun since the dawn of the noughties. Putting a Portuguese spin on the noisy, jangling alt-rock style of US bands like the Pixies (on "Tudo Bem") and Fidlar (on "Stressed Out"), their rampant joyride sound rarely sags, maintaining a frantic pace. Fan favourites like "Lugar Errado" and "Mundo moderno" are rockabilly drag races that zoom to completion without pausing for breath.
