Band: Reffer
Album: Interference
Year: 2001
Label: Urubuz Records
Quality: VBR-2, Lame 3.92 (Ripped from the CD)
Location: Brazil
Similar to: NOFX, No Use For A Name, classic influence for all those new Brazilian bands (really easy to notice when you listen to it).
Additional info: Ok, so here's one of my all time favorite albums... EVER. Reffer was a band that started in Belo Horizonte (if I'm not wrong...) in mid 1995. They had another name before, they were called "Heffer" (do not confuse with the skatepunk band with the same name from United Kingdom) and they released 2 tapes with that name. One was just "Demo" and the other one was "Sweet Illusion". After that, they decided to change their name to Reffer and got signed to Urubuz Records and released their full length. After that they released a 4 way split with Dead Fish, Street Bulldogs and Noçao De Nada, titled "Faces Do Terceiro Mundo" in 2002. I think they did their last show in December of 2003. Now, one of them plays in Dead Fish. When I toured with a local band from Brazil they told me something really interesting. Almost NO ONE saw Reffer live. Why? No one cared about them while they existed, they thought they were just an average band. When they called it quits, no one cared neither then. It was a half year later that people started talking about this band and how good it was and they got REALLY BIG, REALLY REALLY BIG (it's actually the most respected and probably biggest skatepunk band Brazil had) but all their fame came after they broke up. A loooot of bands and people have covers of Reffer on Youtube. There's even an online album tribute to Reffer. I think people don't appreciate some things until they are gone.
