[a2452474] is a Portuguese punk rock band formed in 1995. Current line-up: [a1331560] (Vocals), [url=http://www.discogs.com/artist/2874060-Ruka-5]Ruka[/url] (Guitar); [url=http://www.discogs.com/artist/2874058-Ganso]Tiago Felgueiras[/url] (Guitar); [url=http://www.discogs.com/artist/4850635-Alexandre-Morais-2]Alexandre Morais[/url] (Bass); And [url=http://www.discogs.com/artist/4851495-Kistos]Pedro Rosario[/url] (Drums). [a2452474] was originally an underground project, but upon the release of their album, Lambe-Botas in 2005, they have become commercially successful, especially among young generations. [a2452474] formed when [a1505226], after leaving [a1580193] (a pioneering punk band in Portugal) wanted to create another Portuguese punk rock band, and other bandmantes, [url=http://www.discogs.com/artist/2874060-Ruka-5]Ruka[/url] and Orélio had the same goal. So they joined, in 1995 and formed [a2452474]. Since then [a2452474] has released seven studio albums: "Tara Perdida", "Só Não Vê Quem Não Quer", "É Assim...", "Lambe-Botas", "Nada a Esconder", "Dono do Mundo" and "Luto". [a2452474] is probably the most successful surviving Portuguese punk rock band (albeit not as successful as [a915939] or even [a1580193] on their heyday, but these bands disappeared or stopped playing punk), and has on several occasions opened [a253281] and [a133707] concerts. A DVD was released in December 2007, featuring a live performance in Almada. In the beginning of 2008, a studio album was also released. The band featured in the opening line-up of the 2008 Lisbon, (Portugal), Super Bock Super Rock festival as guests of [a251595]. In 23 March 2014, vocalist [a1505226] dies victim of respiratory infection. In 22 June 2015, the band releases their brand new album titled Luto, the first album with new vocalist Tiago Afonso following the death of João Ribas.
