Ratos De Porão's "Cada Dia Mais Sujo e Agressivo," released on January 1, 1988, via Cogumelo Records, is a raw and unfiltered journey through the chaotic landscape of hardcore punk and thrash metal. This Brazilian rock landmark clocks in at 50 minutes, delivering a relentless assault of 18 tracks that blend Portuguese and English lyrics to create a sonic experience that is as aggressive as it is authentic.
The album features two distinct versions of the same recording session from 1988: one sung in Portuguese and the other in English, known as "Dirty and Aggressive." This duality offers a unique perspective on the band's music, showcasing their versatility and the universal appeal of their hardcore sound. Tracks like "Tatoo Maniac," "Crise Geral," and "Morte & Desespero" exemplify the band's ability to craft anthems that are both musically intricate and lyrically provocative.
With its raw energy and uncompromising attitude, "Cada Dia Mais Sujo e Agressivo" captures the essence of Ratos De Porão's rebellious spirit. The album's artwork, created by Agentes Da Imagem and Jimmy Leroy, complements the music's intensity, adding a visual dimension to the sonic chaos. Whether you're a longtime fan or a newcomer to the world of hardcore punk, this album is a testament to the enduring power of raw, unfiltered rock music.
