^ That's a good recommendation, Ayli - and welcome to MB

I'm checking out the clips of the band you mention,Traffic Sound, that are available on YouTube, and am enjoying Marabantu even as I write:-



My own ten cents about two other artists that have been mentioned in this thread:-

Os Mutantes have one great track with a wonderful fuzzed-up guitar riff, but most of their songs are too short, too playful or too dated for me.
Does Caetano Veloso deserve to be in the rock section at all? What little I've heard of his material all seem to be romantic ballards. The opening post calls him "the Brazilian Dylan," which would be true only if Blue Moon was typical of Dylan's repertoire, which thankfully it is not.

All that aside, if you're not too fussy about genre distinctions and possess "language plasticity" yourself, you might enjoy some of the bands here:-
