Mamonas Assassinas

Mamonas Assassinas was a Brazilian rock band formed in 1995 that originated from the group Utopia. The lineup consisted of Dinho, Júlio Rasec, Bento Hinoto, Samuel Reoli, and Sérgio Reoli. Their 1995 debut studio album sold over three million copies in Brazil, becoming one of the fastest-selling records in the country's history. This release featured the hit singles "Vira-Vira" and "Pelados em Santos," both of which dominated the national airplay charts. Although the group's career was cut short by a fatal aviation accident in 1996, their musical legacy continued through posthumous releases, including the compilation Atenção, Creuzebek: A baixaria continua! (1998) and the live recording Mamonas ao vivo (2006).
