Zii e zie

Caetano Veloso

Angular electric guitars meet traditional samba rhythms. A stark, intellectual exploration of urban tension and political unease through a minimalist rock trio.

A sharp, intellectual restlessness that balances melodic beauty with abrasive electric textures.

Moments Worth Listening For
The jarring contrast between the delicate vocal melody and the jagged, distorted guitar stabs on the opening track.
The hypnotic, repetitive drum pattern on A base de Guantánamo that feels both tribal and industrial.
The way the guitar tone on Lapa mimics the chaotic energy of a Rio nightlife district through dissonance.
Where This Album DepartsEach spoke is a trait. The orange shape shows where this album pulls away from — or holds to — the rest of the artist’s catalogue. Tap for more.
