Album Notes & Community Reviews

Recorded shortly after the artist went public with his HIV diagnosis, the album serves as a visceral and politically charged manifesto of the post-dictatorship era. The arrangements emphasize a sharper, more aggressive rock sound compared to his earlier pop-oriented solo work, featuring high-fidelity rhythmic foundations and biting social commentary. It remains a definitive pillar of Brazilian rock, prioritizing intellectual defiance and emotional transparency.
