Mutantes

Mutantes

Os Mutantes's second album begins with a fanfare that gives way to a pastoral melody that, in its turn, shifts into a rocking, Beatles-esque groove. All this during the first track, "Dom Quixote," a thinly veiled remembrance of the group's TV debut, which was controversial in a late-'60s Brazil ruled by an oppressive military regime. (The Tropicalia movement the group helped lead was hardly admired by the country's leftists, either.) The music's romanticism is smartly displayed here, too, on "Qualquer Bobagem" and "Fuga No. II," the latter linking Indian-based psychedelia with a glorious Left Banke-style chorus. --Rickey Wright
