Fortaleza - in the Brazilian Northeast - is well known for its sunny beaches and warm sea. In this land where the Sun shines all the year, many surprises come with the dusk. A small but solid unexpected rock scene arises as the Sun goes down. Even more unexpectedly you'll take notice that one of the better and most active post-punk bands in Brazil lives and plays many gigs here. Plastique Noir has gained strong media attention and has toured almost the entire country playing in the most famous independent rock festivals and spreading their reach beyond the limits of the almost non-existent Brazilian goth scene. They've wisely trailed a path that kept their old fans and rapidly gained admirers from the neighbor punk, psychobilly and indie scenes. They've recently performed at Ponto.CE an independent festival headlined by The Exploited. After a few independent demo releases they've signed to Pisces Records to release their debut album Dead Pop. Airton S.(vox/programming), Marcio Mäzela (guitar) and Danyel (bass/programming) have successfully made a varied collection of catchy melodies, dark moods and intelligent riffs and programming. You'll certainly feel the influence of old school gothic rock but there's even a stronger feel of fresh music in their sound placing them close to bands like Interpol or She Wants Revenge.

Their strong presence in most of the social networks available has proved to be an efficient strategy to spread their word and grow their fan base, as we can see by the current poll promoted by a Brazilian telecom company to chose new bands to be featured in their webradio. You can also listen and vote here and help promoting the guys into the mainstream.
