In this period Agrotóxico released 7 albums, a documentary DVD and participated in several VA records around the world.
The Agrotóxico’s lyrics talk about different social subjects, from the violence of the big cities, wars, ecology, politics, etc., always within the scene of the libertarian left wing.

The band is currently preparing for their 25 anniversary tour in Brazil and Europe and has already booked their first shows on the old continent scheduled for July / August this year.
