Tropa De Choque

Tropa de Choque were from the city of Almada in Portugal, formed in October 1989 by Luis Fernandes (vocals/ guitar), Luis Filipe Maria (guitar), Nelson Guerreiro (bass) and Carlos (drums), which is replaced by Ricardo Canha that could not adapt, forcing Carlos to return to the group. The band released a 3 track demo tape at the beginning of 1991, with the tracks "Civilização", "Nós e Eles" and "Porquê?". The following year, they went again into the studio and recorded a second demo tape, "Mira Já Feita", with the songs "Cidade Fria", "Retrospectiva", "Armado e Perigoso", "Prisão Interior" and "Trabalhos Forçados". In October 15th 1994 they celebrate the 5th anniversary with a gig at the Incrível Almadense, Almada.
