LONELY NERDS' SONGBOX

I am writing this lines about my dear friends Lonely Nerd's Songbox but to tell the truth i don't know if they are still going now. Débora Salomão joined us on Último Volume in 2000 and in that time she got into the really brazilian indie scene. In the same 2000's, i remember DW, Panke and their friends every thuesdays were on studio of the radio to see us record the radio show. It closed up us like a friends and an "indiegang" in downtown Curitiba was forming. After that they are in the music alternative scene starting and breaking bands projects but always doing good music. I am a Lonely Nerd's Songbox fan more than they imagine. Listen their songs before they decide break up again....

WRY

Wry are a perfect mix between punk and shoegaze. Live they remind The Who and the songs are influenced by Sonic Youth, The Wedding Present, My Bloody Valentine and early U2 wrapped by their unique sound. They released 2 albums in Brazil, their debut Direct (Holiday Records 1998) and Heart-Experience (Monstro Records 2001) gained great reviews in the Brazilian media. Two videos were shot: Red Shoes and Jesus Beggar in 2001 which were played regularly on MTV Brazil. After the Brazilian Goo Goo Meginee Tour 2001 and I Love And Hate You Brazil Tour 2002 they flew out to London and have based themselves there for the foreseeable future.
Wry have played with many International bands on Brazilian tours such as Man Or Astroman?, Superchunk and Make Up. In the UK they have recently played with The Subways, The Cribs, The Parkinsons, The Rakes and Houston 500 and are well respected by all.

NATIONAL

In the world of arts, it is always difficult to find the limit between genius and pure madness. The duo National brings the better of the two worlds: their music is impressive for its geniality and complexity and the concepts behind it are on the verge of insanity.
They work with homemade sound experimentation, using synthesizers and keyboards, sequencers, guitars, voice effects, computers and samplers to produce eclectic and unclassified music. They are extremely eccentric and they make everything in their own devices, from the recordings to the manufacture of the CDs and artwork. They had done ambient music, porn soundtracks, parodies, dance and traditional electronica, downtempo, breakbeat, braindance and idm, always conceptual. In 2001 came a single in floppy-disk, followed by the albums Disket-Delay and Insônia. Insônia used sleep as subject and Disket-Delay bet in the extreme ambience.
In early 2002 the duo came back with 9 CDs at once. They were records as the brilliant tribute to John Cage’s 4’33’’, the bizarre Sampler Virus 1 and 2, the compilation of forbidden songs Plunderphonics All-Stars, one record totally devoted to the ideas of the philosopher Pierre Lévy and others as Música para Mulheres Mutantes, C+A, Cinco and CD. Thanks Bizarre Music.
