When Pacheco joined BTL, they start playing somewhere along the lines of Motorhead, Maiden, Priest, but also with some musically intricate hints at BOC's sound, especially from the first albums by those New Yorkers. Only two tapes were recorded as self-produced demos, ''Não vai lá!'' from late 1982, still very much influenced by punk-Metal, by Discharge, Venom and Hellhammer ( even though the band were not yet familiar with the latter) and then in mid 84, ''Volume 11'' , also known as ''Não preciso de religião...'', which was one of the six tracks recorded for BtL's 2nd demo, where there was a highly Maidenesque long instrumental called ''Otanissassa''. jão da silvahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17241713965496504054noreply@blogger.com
