Não Wave
Não Wave is the name given to a series of three albums (one compilation and two extended plays) released between 2005 and 2008 by German independent record company Man Recordings. Não Wave is Portuguese for "no wave", in an allusion to the artistic scene that had its beginnings during the late 1970s through the mid-1980s in New York City characterized by heavy experimentation.[1][2]

The first Não Wave compilation album was released on 25 April 2005, and was the first album Man Recordings ever released. It contains a collection of songs from various bands and artists that formed the São Paulo underground post-punk scene of the early 1980s (with the exception of Black Future and Vzyadoq Moe, who hail from Rio de Janeiro and Sorocaba, respectively).[1][2]
Of all bands present in the compilation, only Ira! would achieve mainstream success during its lifespan.
