After this Angra really started to get good. Awesome album, has some power metal at it's purest forms (Z.I.T.O.) but does not forget occasional slowdowns (Silence and Distance). Not bad at all.

My first metal album! I remember listening to it when I was a kid! Very nice!

Favorite songs:
-Nothing To Say
-Z.I.T.O. (I wonder what the title means)
-Make Believe

I think what makes this album so unique is it's atmosphere and sound all the way through. The Brazilian twist on songs such as 'Nothing to say' and the monumental 'Carolina IV' make for astounding compositions, and even when the band slow down to let the listener breathe for a few minutes, songs such as the beautiful 'Deep blue' show the band can work well with songs of all tempos.

The best job with Andre Matos

Brilliant album. This is a true masterpiece and only gets better with time. Fucking maracatu rhythm on Carolina IV fits perfectly, such a flawless bland of Brazilian music, with classical, and power metal. From a pure music perspective, the song writing in this album is about as good as it gets.
