| ==Early period== | |||
| In ] ] wrote the first original rock 'n' roll song "]", recorded by ] and #52 on the year's charts. | |||
| In Brazil many bands continued to perform translations of English lyrics, though many avoided this problem by playing ]. Inspired by such instrumental bands ] and ], ] saw the release of the first Brazilian instrumental rock song, "Here's the Blue Jean Rockers" by ]. Later that year, ] recorded the first purely instrumental LP. This helped make rock the most popular style of Brazilian youth music. More bands, like ], ], ], ], ], ], ], ], ] and ], arose. | |||
| ==1959== | |||
| 1959 was a breakthrough year for ''']ian ]''' as its pioneers emerged and became true stars. Out of thousands of performers, ], ], ], ], ], ], ], ], ] and ] climbed to success seemingly overnight. A number of instrumental bands like ], ], ] and "]" became girls´ heart-throbs. They enjoyed the same success in Brazil as the ] did in Europe and America years later. | |||
| ==Social development== | |||
| Right after rock'n'roll took America by storm, ] and ] also became liberating icons for Brazilian youth. The youth of Brazil felt that they were under sexual and educational oppression, as Brazilian society had been based on the standards and rules of the ] colonization. For example, looking at a strange boy or girl in public meant falling into public disgrace. With the advent of rock'n'roll, the Brazilian world began to change. Teenagers were not "only to be seen but not heard" anymore. However, the youth's first reaction was violent. Many movie theaters were totally wrecked during the showing of rock'n'roll movies. This went on for a couple of years until finally the young people decided that if American kids could do it, why couldn't they? So, some radio disc-jockeys and recording companies set out to find new talents that could not only sing but who would also do it in perfect ]. | |||
| This new social era led to a total transformation of customs, and outlived many other attempts to keep Brazil's social structure rooted in the older traditions and religious dogmas. | |||
| In ], ] had two hits: "]" (Portuguese lyrics by ] for the ] song) and ], the first Roberto Carlos/Erasmo Carlos collaboration<ref name="rcd"/>. | |||

The underground scene had ] and ] bands such as ], ] and ] from the mid to late ]. | |||
| ==Contemporary== | |||
| In modern times, the ] saw a resurgence in instrumental rock's popularity, and some of the classic bands from previous decades reformed. ] also became popular, especially ] and ]. But none of these styles could keep up with the new bands who were a large success, like ] (which was formed in the late 1980s, but only released its first album in 1994), ], ] and ] in later years. Also, ] ] format brought back bands whose career was considered over, like the Titãs in 1996, Capital Inicial in 2000 and, more recently, Ira! in 2004. | |||
