. It reissue of their first work (available in LP format only, titled Apocalypse) with all lyrics in Portuguese. The difference is that one track was completely re-recorded ("Sozinho, Perdido Dentro de Mim") and the guitar parts are added to this CD. Three bonus tracks recorded in 1992-1993 (Mesmo que não Haja Nada, Levando a Vida and Chamando por Ajuda - Crying for Help - Portuguese version) were also included. Again, the music is basically in the neo-progressive style, but now with more of a vocal presence from Chico Casara and harmonies from the other bandmembers. A highlight is the constant duel of keyboards and drums. There some similarities to IQ and Pendragon, and also Yes and Pink Floyd influences on the long track "Levando a Vida". The artwork of the booklet carries listeners on a journey to a land of elves and fairy tales.
