Dibob is a pop punk group originating from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, that gained recognition during the mid to late 2000s for their witty and humorous lyrics. The band was formed in 2001 by Miguel, Gesta, Faucom, and Dedeco, initially as a relaxed side project. Their name, "Dibob," is inspired by the Portuguese phrase "de bobeira," which translates to "hanging out" or "goofing off." They independently released their first EP, Markebra, in 2003, followed by the well-received albums O Fantástico Mundo Dibob (2004) and A Ópera do Cafajeste (2007). The latter was unveiled at a major concert held at the now-closed Canecão venue.
During the 2005 MTV Video Music Brazil ceremony, Dibob joined forces with Leela, Ramirez, and Forfun to perform a rendition of Ultraje a Rigor's "Nós Vamos Invadir Sua Praia," fostering strong collaborative relationships with these bands. In 2012, Dibob collaborated once more with Forfun on the track "Rio Porque Tô no Rio," a tribute to their hometown.
In 2009, Dedeco left the band, prompting bassist Gesta to take over lead vocal duties; as a trio, they released the cover album Resgate in 2010. Although Dedeco rejoined in 2011, the group soon announced an indefinite break. After a four-year pause, Dibob returned to performing live and participated in the 2020 Rio Rock Tour festival alongside Strike, Catch Side, and Darvin.
In 2016, Faucom initiated the side project Tivoli together with members from Forfun and Ramirez. Later, in 2018, he became part of the supergroup Riocore All Stars, which features former members of Forfun, Ramirez, and Scracho.
