CSS or Cansei de Ser Sexy is a Brazilian band from São Paulo. Formed in September 2003, the band took its name from a reported quote by Beyoncé who allegedly declared that she was "tired of being sexy," which translates to Portuguese as "cansei de ser sexy."
With their unique blend of indie rock, electroclash, and new wave influences, CSS has captivated audiences worldwide. Their energetic performances and catchy tunes have earned them a dedicated fan base.
Known for their infectious songs like "Music Is My Hot Hot Sex" and "Alala," CSS continues to push boundaries with their experimental sound and bold fashion choices. Don't miss out on experiencing the electrifying music of CSS!

Short for "Subterranean Pop" 

The label was an outgrowth of [a=Bruce Pavitt]'s Olympia, WA based (print) fanzine, which became the well respected cassettezine of the same name. 

After his move to Seattle he ran a music column in the Seattle Rocket also called Sub Pop.

After initial forays into the record label world with a [a=Green River] 7" (not officially on Sub Pop) and the Sub Pop 100 LP, the label exploded onto the indie scene with four influential colored vinyl 7"s which included [a=Mudhoney]'s "Touch Me I'm Sick" which made the year-end top 10 playlist of nearly every music journalist in the world.

Subsequent hyping of the label in the English music press put them on the map, and grunge was born.

Label-Code is 03159; rarely found printed on releases (basically only on releases manufactured/licensed by Warner/WEA Germany)

Reissued! CSS 'Cansei De Ser Sexy': From São Paulo, Brazil comes CSS, the first South American band Sub Pop foisted upon the global marketplace. 'Cansei De Ser Sexy', Portuguese for 'Tired Of Being Sexy', is improbably, unbelievably and nearly eponymously their debut. Includes 'Let's Makes Love And Listen Death From Above'.
