All songs are credited to the band as a whole (except for three tracks co-credited to the just-departed Arnaldo Antunes[2]), as it happened in the previous album, Tudo Ao Mesmo Tempo Agora.

[5] Between the previous album (Tudo ao Mesmo Tempo Agora) and this one, vocalist Arnaldo Antunes announced his departure of the band, which caught the members off guard.

[1] Still in bad terms with producer Liminha, they started a search for a foreign name that would match their increasingly more aggressive sound (they believed no Brazilian would be able to do what they wanted[4]).

After checking then recent albums, they agreed Endino would be an interesting name, both for his work with heavy rock bands (Nirvana, Soundgarden, Screaming Trees and his own group Skin Yard) and for his association with the independent scene, which made him more affordable.

"),[6] but a news story by Jornal do Brasil says some members flew to the MTV Video Music Awards in Los Angeles with a demo tape containing 11 tracks.

One of the songs that got left out was "Dissertação do Papa Sobre o Crime Seguida de Orgia", since the band translated the lyrics literally, but within the "limit of the possible".

and "Nem Sempre se Pode Ser Deus") were selected to promote the album and received videos (both directed by Beto Brant and Ralph Strelow).

[4] The album's promotional tour involved a stage scenery signed by Zarif and inspired by a work by French artist Francis Picabia for pianist Erik Satie.

[19] In a text about MTV's announcement of the Olympia's special, Sérgio Sá Leitão said the band no longer had the same talent it exhibited on Cabeça Dinossauro and that it now bet on "farofa"[a] and that they "had once made sense, somewhere in the past".

[19] Writing for O Estado de S. Paulo, Marcel Plasse praised the band's attitude of going rock instead of pop, but considered the aggressiveness and the critiques too empty compared to those of Cabeça Dinossauro.

[16] Tom Leão, on O Globo, praised the quality of the album for valuing the rock aspect of the songs, although he agreed it wasn't a classic at the same level of Cabeça Dinossauro.
