A haunting, claustrophobic masterpiece of Tropicalia. Recorded while under political duress, it blends delicate bossa nova with jagged psychedelic experimentation.

Moments Worth Listening For
The jarring transition from the gentle acoustic strumming of Irene into the haunting, English-language isolation of The Empty Boat.
The way the strings swell into a dissonant, cinematic fog during the climax of Os Argonautas.
The bizarre, proto-industrial vocal repetitions and clattering percussion that dismantle the melody on Alfômega.
