About

CSS (an initialism of Cansei de Ser Sexy) (Portuguese: [kɐ̃ˈsej d(ʒi)seʁ ˈsɛksi], English lit. "[Got] tired of being sexy") is a Brazilian rock band from São Paulo. The band was labelled as part of the explosion of the new rave scene of the late 2000s. CSS releases songs in both Portuguese and English, something which allowed them to develop a significant audience in the anglosphere in their formative years.

In 2011, Adriano Cintra, a founding member and the group's main songwriter and producer, left the band. His departure indirectly led to CSS becoming inactive between 2013 and 2019. The band reformed without Cintra in 2019. At first, the band planned to simply play one gig in São Paulo; however, the gig's success drove the members to return full-time.
