Biography
Raimundos is a Brazilian hardcore punk band formed in 1987 by Digão (Rodrigo Aguiar) and Rodolfo Abrantes, in Brasília, Distrito Federal. They had major influences from 1980s punk bands, especially Ramones, which their name is a play on. Raimundos went on to achieve major success and become one of the most influential rock bands of Brazil in the 1990s, with multiple gold records and a double platinum achievement on their MTV live album. The band's prominence decreased significantly with the exit of vocalist Abrantes to focus on religious activities.
The name of the band alludes and ironically refers to the proper name Raimundo (Raymond, in English), as it was one of the most common male first names of persons from the Northeast region of Brazil, while also being a local-flavored homage to the Ramones.
Singer João Gordo of Ratos de Porão participated on their first album Raimundos (1994) providing backing vocals on the song "MM's", while vocalist Derrick Green of Sepultura participated on their album Kavookavala
