1) Dead Fish is a Brazilian hardcore punk band from Vitória, Espírito Santo, Brazil. Formed in 1991, they developed their music with intense vocal, initially sung in English then switched to Portuguese, frantic guitar fretwork, bulldozer-like drumming style and bass picking. The lyrics usually range from political and social criticism to daily personal problems, among others.

Their gigs are known for the energetic performances, frantic mosh-pit and stage dives. Also, there's a well-know catch phrase shout by the crowd at sometime in the show: "Ei, Dead Fish, vai tomar no cu!" which means "Hey, Dead Fish, go fuck your ass off!"

In 2004 they almost broke up but signed up with major label Deckdisc, releasing their first mainstream album, Zero e Um.

Band's current lineup is: Rodrigo (vocals), Philipe - who has left Reffer, Alyand (bass) and Marcos (drums) making Dead Fish's "kitchen".

Molotov
Dead Fish Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Muitos corpos caem
Cairão, camburão
Cassetete, porrada, porrete

Muitos nasceram
Morreram, viveram, lutaram
Cobraram, cobraram pra poder comer

Curiosos, interessados
Lutadores
Lutadores e mártires e líderes
Comam, briguem, briguem, lutem
Caiam mas não
se esqueçam de se levantar

Molotov por todos que ainda irão
Plantar, morar
Reformar, reagir, distribuir
Educar, dividir, compartilhar

Ensinar, progredir,
Olhar, ignorar, falar
Brigar, brigar, correr,
Comer, correr,
Voltar a lutar

Infeliz do operário
Lutou, correu, comeu
Morou, lutou, lutou, gritou
Falou, fome passou

Ei você que viu e se indignou
Você que viu, e só viu
Ficou olhando, observando
Indignado, estático, apático

Enfrentou, combateu
Combateu, combateu, combateu
Gritou, gritou, gritou
Combateu,

Dormiu na rua
Não acordou, morreu!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
