White Frogs’ ‘Radio Session’ gets first-ever CD release

White Frogs, the influential Brazilian melodic hardcore band, is proud to announce the long-awaited physical release of their acclaimed Radio Session — for the first time ever on CD — through UK based independent label Engineer Records.

 

Previously available only on streaming, the Radio Session captures White Frogs at their raw, honest, and electrifying best — a live-in-studio recording that distils the energy of the band’s celebrated live shows into a powerful, unfiltered format.

 

This milestone release for the Santos, São Paulo, Brazil based band is available now, and the Radio Session CD marks a new chapter for White Frogs and a significant step-up in their international legacy, bringing their sound directly to new ears across Europe.

 

“This session was one of our purest recordings,” says founding member João Veloso Jr. “It’s direct, urgent, and heartfelt — we’re thrilled it’s finally being made available as a physical release, especially through such a respected DIY label like Engineer Records.”

Tracklist:

Different ways

Do what you want

Far from the shore

Undone

Changes

Guilty

Just another urban tale

Chess match

Stay united

Friendship

About the Radio Session:

Originally recorded and broadcast live for Brazil 2000, a Brazilian radio broadcast in the early 2000s, the Radio Session includes raw versions of fan favourites, showcasing the band’s blend of melodic sensibility and hardcore drive. It’s a snapshot of a band at their peak — no overdubs, no filters, just passion and precision.

 

About White Frogs:

Formed in 1993 in Santos, Brazil, White Frogs helped define the melodic hardcore scene in South America, drawing inspiration from US bands like Bad Religion, Minor Threat, and Dag Nasty. They released key albums such as Urban Songs (1997), Twenty One Jay (2000), and the compilation Choices Made 93–98, toured extensively, and shared stages with genre legends including Bad Religion, NOFX, Down by Law, Millencolin, No Fun at All, Agent Orange, Shelter, and Ratos de Porão.

Their music has reached over 18 countries through DIY labels, vinyl, compilations, and digital platforms — but this CD marks their first UK physical release in over three decades of punk activity.

Engineer Records connection:

Engineer Records, known for working with underground and alternative acts worldwide, has previously released music by Garrison, Hell Is For Heroes, Elemae, and more. The label’s dedication to quality independent music makes it the perfect home for White Frogs ‘Radio Session’ and this CD will act as an introduction before more planned releases, including a White Frogs vinyl album coming soon in 2026.
