Music like Mamonas Assassinas

Mamonas Assassinas was a satirical Brazilian rock band. On March 2, 1996, the plane in which the band was traveling crashed into the Cantareira mountain range, near São Paulo, causing the death of all five band members. The short lived band enjoyed a "meteoric" success, being celebrated for decades after its end and the members of the band are remembered and celebrated even today.

The band's name carries a double-entendre as, in Portuguese mamonas can be either the name of the Castor oil plant, which contains the highly toxic compound ricin (their logo incorporated a castor bean) or the augmentative for mamas, meaning breasts (which were prominently pictured on the album cover). The band mentioned model Mari Alexandre as an influence to the name, and even translated the name into English as "Killer Big Breasts".
