His first ever live album, it was self-released in 2000 and recorded during a gig at the Hipódromo Up in Rio de Janeiro in the same year.

[1] Löis Lancaster, vocalist of now-defunct experimental rock band Zumbi do Mato (one of Skylab's greatest influences), was a guest musician on the album, providing additional vocals for the track "Samba".

The album is considered one of Skylab's finest by fans and critics alike,[2] and the songs "Convento das Carmelitas" and "Carrocinha de Cachorro-Quente" eventually became set list regulars after appearing here in recorded form for the first time.

[4] Blog Disco Furado gave the album a positive review, saying that "while on his first album Skylab seemed restrained by Robertinho do Recife's production, it is on this one he could showcase the pungency his lyrics needed".

[5] Website La Cumbuca included Skylab II in 24th place in its list of the Top 200 Brazilian Albums of the 2000s.
