Forgotten Boys is tagged as: garage rock, brazilian, alternative rock, rock, punk rock During the second half of the 90s, the Brazilian underground music scene was (already) clearly dominated by Hardcore and Emo. Two kids, however, were not sure what the hell was going … all, they had grown up listening to Iggy and The Stooges, Johnny Thunders, MC5, etc. Bored with it all and without any motivation to go out and see shows to have a good time, they decided to book studio time to record a 3-song demo called “…Cos Revenge is Sweet”. They baptized themselves as The Forgotten Boys. The year was 1997, the place, Sao Paulo, Brazil. By 1998 Gustavo Riviera and Arthur Franquini had gathered quite a few new tunes and so they decided to bring in a bass player to their project. They then recorded a new demo by the end of that year, consisting of 13 tracks and self-titled “Forgotten Boys.” They caused a very contagious reaction: despite of the band only pressing and distributing some copies of their, then, most recent demo, the entire local scene started talking about them. In 2000, after serving as Marky Ramone’s backing band in Brazil, the band recorded the first album, also self-titled “Forgotten Boys,” that was released on Ataque Frontal, a legendary Brazilian label responsible for releasing Punk Rock music.
