NUDZ - The Watcher

NUDZ was formed in 2017 in Belo Horizonte / MG, by musicians from the Minas Gerais – Sepultura’s hometown - rock scene. It originated from low tuned guitar riffs (drop C), exploring harmonies of alternative rock, stoner, grunge, and modern metal. The band arose from the need to transcend daily life, doing something honest, with purely artistic intentions. It has a striking timbre in the vocal and lyrics that tell life stories.

The group proposes to leave what it feels in the songs, with nudity, living up to the name “NUDZ”, (makes an indirect allusion to the term NU METAL) exploring density, groove and sublime harmonies / melodies. The band's influences range from Alice in Chains, to Deftones, Queens of The Stone Age, and even Brazilian bands like Scalene, ISSO, and Ego Kill Talent and The Space Time Ripples.

The band released their first EP entitled “The Watcher” and has been gaining prominence on Spotify with thousands of monthly listeners. They also released 2 music videos (on youtube): Occasional Mistake, (Jan / 2019), and Time for Recreation (Oct /2019) and in a short time, together they accumulated over 250 thousand views on Youtube and hundreds of positive comments. The music videos were the subject of reports on several Brazilian music blogs such as “Whiplash” and “Wikimetal”, among dozens of others. The band also created good notoriety on social networks. The launch of the “Time for Recreation” video was reported on the blog “I have more records than friends” the 2nd largest music blog in the country, second only to Rolling Stone Brazil). With “The Watcher” the band wants to show the world that "is possible to change and don’t belong to a slavery world where everyone is controlled and give up their lives. Also, don’t belong to a system who only care about profits. We want to show to the people that is possible to reach their dreams, is possible to be “yourself” and “ourselves” in front of a scenario that discards people as humans and put on us a kind of bar code, turning us in a bunch of people made for consumption and to be system slave like a wake of plastic humans."

In january 27 th , 2020, the band released their third music video "My Sexual Tool" which is the strongest of all and forbidden to under 18. In addition, the group plans to start recording their second EP in the second half of 2020.
