One-man rock band from Brazil.
I’ve dedicated 10 of my 25 years of life to a band called The Invisibles. During that period of time, we independently released two albums and one ep, recorded more than 50 songs that traveled good portions of the Earth, got rave reviews from zines and magazines we respect, played with bands we really admire (like Sepultura and Samiam), went to cities and people that we never thought we would met. And when my will of making music grew bigger than the hability of those four people getting together in a practicing room, the end of the Invisibles marked, mainly, the beginning of Driving Music. And that’s where we meet, you and I, right now. The five songs that accompany this note are the result of six months of lonely work, but that find in said loneliness the possibility of full growth. I’ve produced these five songs at home, with a lot of freedom and zero inhibitions. The drums were sequenced using Reason SoundFactory and I recorded all the other instruments with little technology. Songs that combine the urgency of punk rock (Descendents, Jawbreaker, Face to Face) with the lighthearted glow of 90s alternative rock (Sugar, Lemonheads, Smoking Popes) and the melodic structure of tradition singer/songwriters (Paul Westerberg, Bruce Springsteen, Elvis Costello). Small conversations sewned together with simple melodies, with no other pretension besides being a nice company for a little while. While new musical adventures are usually attached to the “I’m finally making the music I always wanted to make” speech, I’d rather say this is the music I want to make right now. Songs that are happy to be just songs the biggest possible reason for any band to exist. Songs that are free to take me wherever they want to go. And, more than anything else, songs about today. This is my life. These are my impressions of the world. This is what I have to say. This is Driving Music.

Lyrics
Undress the myth of your old neighborhood Parade these streets like that's the highlight of your day Dare all your past shames with a call for a death match Refresh your passions like you said you would The trap you fell into when you first sang that song Seduced by the major A, you barely knew the words Wonder when this space got filled with disappointment 'Cause this town has stopped sparkling and they can not see it at all Color your memories 'cause they're all you have Open those closets where you might have lost your faith Erase the views that once were meaningful to you And all the promises the future held Are pale horizons mumbling words you can not spell Or that smile that'd change your life, but you never came across Never thought your dead plans could come back to haunt you But this town has stopped sparkling and they can not see it at all Lost and golden Faithless sunshine boy Your clock is broken And it's leaving you behind Lost and golden Useless treasure boy Your clock says it's okay to lie 'Cause this town has stopped sparkling and they can not see it at all You keep sparkling but nobody cares at all And your sparkles can not catch you when you fall And a lie is still a lie but the right sparkles change it all And if the world has lost the will to save you I still think someday I'm gonna learn from you How to see it all
