ATENTADO is a punk band formed in 1992 in Lisboa, Portugal, (following the demise of the classic punk band ATROFIADOS) by Pedro Do Vale, Cenoura, Roberto and Xico who were founding members of the band ATROFIADOS, after 3 months still under the banner of ATROFIADOS the band changes the name for ATENTADO and about that time nothing really happened, the band went into a 20 years hiatus until the present day, where former bassist Pedro Do Vale and Xico decided to re-activate the band, mainly because of their passion for the music and sheer presistance, that inevitably ended up in PARADOX, the band´s first effort in 20 years! where the band performs re-arranged songs from the ATROFIADOS classic demo, and 9 brand new songs.

 

Before entering the studio singer Xico decided to quit the band, giving way to Rafael Brazuna.

 

Now with a revamped line up of Pedro Do Vale, Paulo Lafaia (We Are The Damned), Ricardo Correia (We Are The Damned / Twentyinchburial) JP Fulgencio (Twentyinchburial / For The Glory) and Rafael Brazuna (Subcaos / Etacarinae) this 5 friends hit the studio with Fernando Matias @ The Pentagon in Lisboa, Portugal to track down PARADOX, the band instantly signed with Ragingplanet.

 

ATENTADO plays an effective, simple and raw form of punk/crust style, with a short mindset of songwritting.

Play LOUD!
