Voluntários Da Pátria

Among myriads of new bands that popped out in Brazil (São Paulo) in the early 80s came along Voluntários da Pátria ("Nation Volunteers") who played a nice going post-punk whose members were all famous names of the post-punk scene in Brazil sometime: Minho K (Verminose, Magazine e 3 Hombres), Guilherme Isnard (Zero), Akira S. e Edson X (Akira S. & As Garotas que Erraram), Thomas Pappon (Smack e Fellini), Nasi e Gaspa (Ira!). They formed in 1982 by guitarrists Miguel Barrela (ex-Agentss) e Giuseppe Fripp. They released an album in 1984 recorded by Miguel and Giuseppe on guitars, Nasi singing, Gaspa on bass and Thomas Pappon on drums. They split up short after releasing it. [SOURCE: POSTPUNKBRAZIL]
