about

Nude were one of the most charismatic and influential bands in Madeira Island (Portugal) in the late 90's and early 2000's. A power-trio that gathered sounds and inspiration mainly from rock, blues-punk and garage. The attitude and energy in the songs and in the live performances were at the very least contagious.

Nude's main line-up was Paulo Sergio on drums, Jaime Camacho on guitar and Danny on bass and vocals. They played their first concert in Amazonia Bar in '97 along with Trick Or Treat (a contemporary local band). Some time after winning Antena 3 Rock '97, a local band contest, they released 3 songs (Way, Difo & Limbo This) in the competition CD that quickly became regional rock anthems. That release also features 2 songs by Sidewalk (Without a Word becoming also one of those anthems) and another by Opium.

If in their beginning they were a classic power-trio (guitar, bass, drums), in '98 by they decided to replace the bass with a very particularly tuned bass stringed guitar. A both bold and wise move
so that the music didn't fall into more of the samo' samo'. The following collective adaptation of their individual influences to this new sound rapidly steered away from an apparent normality in rock music to a rawer and more shredded sound; hard and straight to the point. The frantic drums, the guitarred bass layer and the punctuating guitar get together like there's no tomorrow. Short, pungent and poignant songs with an attitude that wasn't very common in the cluster of bands in the archipelago at the time.

In 2000 they recorded 7 songs in Paulo Ferraz Studio (Funchal) but several unforseen delays and setbacks had, in the meantime, driven the band to a halt. Some years later, I brought the ADAT's to Porto to digitize and these recordings remained peacefully and quietly in my hard drive until 2010 when I decided to mix them. At a personal level, i really felt these recordings had to come out somehow, their music is just too good.
