Mutantes... One of the most experimental of all times!!!
According to MOJO Magazine from England, Os Mutantes is one of the most experimental bands of all times.
A landmark LP! This is the first -- and the wildest -- album by this legendary group that was one of the founding forces of the Tropicalia movement -- a brilliant musical statement that easily ranks with some of the most groundbreaking late 60s American work by The Velvet Underground, Captain Beefheart, or The Stooges!
The music is a wonderful blend of 60s rock and early MPB -- hard-driving with plenty of guitars, but also produced with beautifully baroque touches that echo through simultaneous albums by Caetano Veloso and Gal Costa -- both of whose 1969 albums are strongly resonant with this one. In fact, Caetano contributed a number of tracks to the album, including "Panis et Circenses", "Bat Macumba", "Trem Fantastma", and his great "Baby", which is done fantastically here. Great stuff all 'round!
