In 2004, then Portuguese President Jorge Sampaio granted the band a state decoration for 25 years of career achievements in the music industry. On 26 September 2009, they played in Lisbon to a packed football stadium, Estádio do Restelo, to commemorate their 30th anniversary. They played for three hours – each hour marking a decade of their steadily successful career. It was the first time seven screens were used on stage in Portugal.
Current members are most of the original line up Tim (bass/ vocals), João Cabeleira (guitar – since 1983), Kalú (drums/ backing vocals) and Gui (sax/ backing vocals). Fans refer to the band as Xutos; and Xutos is pronounced 'shootoosh'. Both 'xutos' and 'pontapés' are words in reference to types of kicks, but with a twist because the first word when spelled "Chutos" is referred for kick on a ball or object, but here used as "'xutos", slang for Heroin injection, while 'pontapés' for kicks mainly on people.
Founding member and guitarist Zé Pedro died on 30 November 2017.

Xutos & Pontapés Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
e eu fiquei a olhá-la, como jamais ficara
mostrou-me o seu corpo, como jamais mostrara
e eu fiquei tão quente, como jamais ficara
virou-se pra mim, como jamais virara
segurei-lhe a mão, como jamais segurara
ofereceu-me a boca, como jamais ofertara
e eu fiquei a amá-la, como jamais amara
Ela veio-me morder, como jamais mordera
e eu lutei com ela, como jamais lutara
pegou-me no falo, como jamais pegara
e chupou-me o sangue, como jamais chupara
virou-se de costas, como jamais se virara
segurei-lhe as coxas, como jamais segurara
deitou-se na cama, como jamais se deitara
e eu entrei enfim, como jamais entrara.
The lyrics in the song "Sexo" by Xutos & Pontapés depict a passionate sexual encounter between two individuals. The singer describes how the woman he is with kisses him in a way he has never been kissed before, and how she shows him her body in a way she has never shown before. He becomes hot with desire and loves her in a way he has never loved before. The scene intensifies as she bites him like never before, and he fights back in a way he has never fought before. She then touches him intimately like she never has before, and he experiences a sensation unlike any other. As the scene ends, the woman lies down on the bed in a way she never has before, and the singer finally enters her in a way he never has before.
Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of excitement and newness in a sexual encounter, suggesting that the two individuals are exploring each other in a way they never have before. The language used is sensual and explicit, emphasizing the physical sensations experienced by the two individuals.
