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.

Now Hateen is playing in portuguese
currently is formed by Rodrigo Koala (guitar/vocals), Fabrizio Martinelli (guitar, ex-Zeroleft, Fistt, Street Bulldogs), Sonrisal (bass, ex-Predial, Street Bulldogs) and Xim (drums).

My girl
Hateen Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Walking down the street I saw her
Pretty face and sad eyes
She had a dream once when she was younger
Now her life is full of lies
Oh yeah
She had a dream
She had a heart
She's scared

She's dead
When I look ,she's going away
Well, I wish she could stay
But now she's got a gun
And someone will pay
For what the world made of her one day

'cause now she's scared
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

I know she's going to prove everyone
She's the most beautiful thing

She's the one who gets paid to lay
But in the end she will make them pay for that

Overall Meaning

The opening lines of the song "My girl" by Hateen paint a picture of a woman who once had a dream and a heart, but whose life has been consumed by lies, leaving her with sad eyes. She may have been an ambitious young girl with big aspirations, but now she is a shadow of her former self. The lyrics further suggest that the world has treated her harshly, and as a result, she is scared and possibly even dead inside.

The singer is initially drawn to this woman and wishes that she could stay. However, he eventually discovers that she has been pushed to the brink and is now holding a gun, ready to punish those who have wronged her. The final lines of the song reveal that she has resorted to prostitution to make ends meet, and the singer believes that she will ultimately exact vengeance on those who have taken advantage of her.

Overall, "My girl" is a haunting portrayal of a woman who has been let down by society and is fighting back against those who have treated her unfairly. It speaks to the pain and desperation that can drive someone to take extreme measures, as well as the resilience and strength that can be found in the face of adversity.
