Dead Fish is a Brazilian hardcore band that formed in Vitória, Espírito Santo, in 1991. After releasing four independent albums and numerous demos, they reached the mainstream market and garnered national attention with their breakthrough album Zero e Um (Zero and One), released by Deckdisc in 2004. For the from this album, they won an MTV Video Music Brazil award for Best New Artist. They went on to win Best Hardcore Video at the 2009 MTV Video Awards.
In the early 1990s in Vitória, Espírito Santo, a group of friends with a shared interest in skateboarding decided to start playing music together. Inspired by Dead Kennedys, The Innocents and 7 Seconds, Marcelo “Suicidal” (vocals), Marcel Dadalto (lead guitar), Gustavo "Arroz" Buteri (rhythm guitar), Leonardo "Formiguinha" (bass) and Leandro “Nô” (drums) formed a band they called "Stage Dive". Shortly thereafter, Rodrigo Lima took over the vocal duties and that was the true beginning of the band. They didn't have their own instruments, and didn't know how to play, but learned as they went. They went from covering the Ramones, Bad Brains and Bad Religion to writing their own songs and performing their first concerts. They discovered there were already other bands called Stage Dive, so they wrote down a bunch of possible new names, and chose Dead Fresh Fish, which was then reduced to just Dead Fish.
