AGROTÓXICO in the MRR Top Ten of the Decade.

The latest Agrotóxico album - "Libertação" -  made it to the Maximumrockenroll's Top 10 of the Decade. According to reviewer Ken Sanderson, the record is a "real landmark". The list was published on the issue # 320 (Jan 2010). Check it out:

"Brazil cranked out some of the best hardcore of the decade - still lyrically relevant with the exceptional delivery and astounding energy. Here AGROTOXICO perfected a modernization of classic tough and nails, straight up Brazilian hardcore with powerful anthems topped with pure gravel-raked vocals. A real landmark, mandatory LP that tweaks the basic formula in enough directions to come off completely fresh. Ironically, a lot of the countries with traditionally lo-fi recordings in the '80s (Eastern Bloc, South America) had some of the most professional sounding, clean, and well recorded records this decade."

AGROTÓXICO in Europe - September/2010.

Agrotóxico has just confirmed its fifth European tour for September 2010. The concerts will probably begin in Sept. 04 and end on Sept. 25. The tour booking will be made again by Break the Silence Shows and the countries and concert locations will be defined soon. Stay tuned!!!!

MRR praises the new AGRO (..:posted on 28.03.08)

MaximumRockandRoll, the legendary punk fanzine from San Francisco, reviewed the latest Agrotóxico's full-length on their April edition (issue #299). The band is honored to get such a positive review from the world's premiere punk rag. Read the transcription below:

AGROTOXICO - "Libertacao" CD

Their fifth LP since 1993, Libertacao has AGROTOXICO delivering fourteen more tracks of burly, classic Brazilian hardcore, with gruff, throaty vocals spewed over a mid-tempo hardcore charge, shouted choruses, and the non-stop, drum-driven manic energy that marks the style. RATOS DE PORÃO always comes up as a reference point outside Brazil, and while there are similarities, this album is less thrashy, lacks the metallic edge, and is more of a forceful, straight-ahead VARUKERS-styled punk attack. Combine with that a stepped-up level of musical proficiency, intensity, and inventiveness all captured in a great recording — it seems Brazilian hardcore weighs in heavier and heavier on the world stage with great record after great record like this Cameo vocal from members of OLHO SECO, AÇÃO DIRETA, and LOBOTOMIA only make this more unrelenting. Boss! (KS)
