TNT, also referred to as TNT I, is the debut album by the eponymous Brazilian rock band TNT, the first of their two self-titled albums. It was released in 1987 through RCA Records, and is considered a cornerstone of the Rio Grande do Sul rock scene from the mid-1980s/early 1990s.[1] A critical and commercial success, it spawned a handful of hits, such as "Entra Nessa", "Estou na Mão", "Ana Banana" and "Identidade Zero" (all of them co-written by former vocalist Flávio Basso, prior to his departure from the band), which catapulted the group into nationwide fame and paved their way for a second release one year later.[2]

The album's cover art was allegedly inspired by New Order's 1983 release Power, Corruption & Lies.

Covers

[edit]

"Entra Nessa" was covered by former vocalist Flávio Basso's subsequent project, Os Cascavelletes, around the same time the album was released, on their first demo tape Vórtex Demo.
