History

Black Drawing Chalks began with Victor Rocha and Douglas Castro, which were working and studying together, added to Castro’s brother, Denis, in 2005. By that time, Rocha used to share the vocal tracks with Marco Bauer, who decided to leave the band in 2007, after recording their first album. Bauer was replaced by Renato Cunha on the guitar. The name of the band refers to a German brand of writing tools.

In 2007 they released their first album, Big Deal. After the release, the band started to play gigs around Brazil and played along with bands like Nashville Pussy, The Datsuns, Motörhead and Eagles of Death Metal.

After touring in Canada, in 2009, the band released their second album, Life is a Big Holiday For Us. Counting on a big attention from the media, the band was nominated to three awards in MTV VMB,^{[citation needed]} the Brazilian version of MTV Video Music Awards.
