Influencied by punk rock, hardcore and indie rock, the group tries to keep its own style and to play a very personal music.
Specially in the lyrics, the group shows the real and sincere feelings of daily situations, with a strong emotional content.
That's maybe the reason why they create such a big involvement with their public.
Rodrigo Koala [guitar and vocal], Ricardo di Roberto [drums], and Cesar Santisteban [bass and vocal] gave concerts all over the country, recorded their first demo "Blind Youth" and the first album "Hydrophobia" (Choice Records). In 1996, another guitar player, Boris Fratogianni, joined the group and they recorded, in 1998, the album "Feeling like Nick" (Holiday Records), which is sold out. A few months after, Santisteban left the group and Fernando Sanches [[artist]Dance of Days, Small Talk, Againe, Van Damien, actually CPM 22] took his place.
"Teenage X-Mas Song" was recorded in 2001, in a CD specially made for a Christmas Party at the Hangar 110, a punk rock night-club in Sao Paulo, with the four of them, plus Maurício Takara. The first live album, "More Live Than Dead", was recorded in 2002, at the Hangar 110. The group has also a cover of the American band Husker Dü (Don't Wanna Know if You're Lonely). At the end of 2002, Fernando Sanches has left the group and Andre Abreu (Dé) joined it.
The aim of the group is still the same as it was in the beggining: play as much as possible, at the most different places and keep the integrity of emotion of its music.

Brand New Day
Hateen Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Take me back to that room which I used to laugh
I need that again, don't try to push me 'cause I will not understand
I really need to get back there
Please tell me my friend how did I get this pain?
I always thought I could be fine again
Just like I was yesterday
Where is my old stereo? where is my old computer?
Where's my happiness? I need it back right now!
Please don't put me down - I have something to live for now
Don't fuck everything I'm doing - I'm working hard
Please tell me my friend how did I get this pain?
I always thought I could be fine someday
Just like I was yesterday
Now I'm waking up for a brand new day
Life is love you've been searching for all your life
Life is love you've been searching for all your life
The friends away inside... each one of us
Yet this pain is not enough.. to keep me away
Inside my heart there's a place with your name
I'll all broken down since 11/08/1997
And I just wish you could be here
With me again.. oh my friend..
The song "Brand New Day" by Hateen has a nostalgic and reflective tone, with the singer expressing a desire to return to a simpler time of laughter and happiness. The first verse sets the scene of the singer wanting to go back to his dad's white car and the room where he used to laugh, as he longs for the comforts of the past. The chorus repeats the plea of the singer to have his pain explained to him and to be able to return to the happiness he once knew. The second verse adds to the longing by questioning the whereabouts of the singer's old stereo and computer, as he searches for things that will bring him joy again. The bridge provides some hope for the singer as he reminds himself that life is about love and not to let pain hold him back.
The lyrics of the song evoke feelings of homesickness and a need for comfort and understanding. The singer is struggling with pain that is left unexplained, and even though he is trying to move on and start a new day, he is held back by his nostalgia for the past. The song is relatable to anyone who has gone through a difficult time and longs for simpler, happier days. Ultimately, the song suggests that it is important to hold on to the love in life and not let pain consume us.
