RATOS DE PORÃO – ENSAIO PARA O LIRA - 1985 7" Canadian Punk and Hardcore Packaged sumptuously with artwork fromRecorded in early 1985 during rehearsals for the bands March show at the Lira Paulistana theater in So Paulo, Ensaio Para o Lira captures Ratos de Poro in a brief transitional period. After their debut LP Crucificados Pelo Sistema in 1984, the hardcore scene in So Paulo (like the rest of the world) was in crisis: police and gang violence made shows nearly impossible, and many bands either dissolved or moved into metal or alternative rock.
