Page "Brazilian rock" Paragraph 40

Even though the 1960s witnessed the phenomenon of Jovem Guarda and the 1970s saw the appearance of many prolific artists, like Raul Seixas, and bands like Os Mutantes, Brazilian rock's explosion began in 1981 with the first expressions of the Brazilian New wave, later renamed the New Jovem Guarda by the media.

The Punk rock already was incorporated but the Ska was the news.
