New Os Mutantes

wow!

um, no?

Proof of the pud, I guess...

the show at the barbican the year before last was awful

hey, so, anyone heard this? it's not new, but fuck it, this is a mutantes thread:

CILIBRINAS DO EDEN
Cilibrinas do Eden
(No Smoke)

Whoa! Where did this one come from?? An album's worth of totally awesome unreleased material from Rita Lee of Os Mutantes recorded for Philips in 1973! Cilibrinas do Eden consisted of Rita and friend Lucia Turnbull -- backed by the rest of Mutantes supposedly -- and these ten songs mix that band's psychedelic leanings with crazy Moog freakouts and straight up rock n roll that echoes of the Beatles and T. Rex. It's really hard to believe this material has been existed in complete obscurity for so long, as it ranks way up there with some of the best Mutantes stuff (and as a bonus, you get two great Mutantes outtakes). Limited to 500 copies so don't snooze on this genius.

that's from other music. i'd try to order it but 500 copies plus OMs horrible mailorder department and i don't want to get my hopes up.

I'd imagine Forced Exposure or someone else (Aquarius?) has gotta have it, too.

</MOTO>

Devendra appear on the album

do not want

Well, I ordered it. The CILIBRINAS DO EDEN one, that is.

I know they did "Lady Madonna" back in the day, wonder how you gets that?

like this song(ignore lame emo/goth video)

CILIBRINAS DO EDEN has a rather disappointing rock n roll medley. Ever wanted to hear Rita Lee sing Tutti Frutti? Well, now you can.

Festival Divino is a great song! Funny lyrics

Right, it just arrived.

See, GOTT, just try and sometimes things happen.

i ordered it, kinda pricey

a strange turn of events that Sergio Dias seems to have transformed into David Byrne on 'Mutantes Depois'.

not sure I think much else of the song at the moment.

PEOPLE PEOPLE does CILIBRINAS DO EDEN suck or not? must know before entire run is scoopeded up

Other Music reviews are useless to me people

HAlfway through.

Thinking Hmmmmmmmmm....

Safe to say, it does not suck. Track one is Faust style weirdness, the second more 'mutantes' nice, and so it goes. Liking it so far, maybe love it later, maybe not, dunno yet.

Worth a punt due to limitedness (my copy number 018 out of 500), so if no like, go ebay away)

still haven't received it, please stand by

this is nice but not essential. i like the pretty, more acoustic stuff on the first half of the record, the second half gets more rockin' in a kinda retro 50s way.

Hey Whiney, how were they live?

Or to anyone else who's seen them recently...

I loved it. Tons of fun, a wicked band and they played all their hits. Others may disagree.

There was some discussion on the Tropicala thread.

Cool. I think they played Bumbershoot (local music festival that used to be free but is now super expensive), but I couldn't justify the cost & crowd hassle just to see em. Hope to get another chance soon.

I'm just up the road in Vancouver so I think I saw them a couple of nights before that Bumbershoot show happened. It ended up happening in a cinema that's only about 6 blocks from my house so I couldn't have been happier. Purist might complain about the fact that most of the people on stage were not previously in Os Mutantes, or that the set-list was essentially "Everything is Possible" plus a couple of new songs. But for me, the performances and the sound were quite stunning and the whole thing was full of infectious fun.

They were fantastic in Portland. Best guitar playing I've seen this year.

I was familiar with the band, but not their catalog. So I actually enjoyed the new tunes best (many of which sounded like Mr Bungle).

Great show. Totally worthwhile. I picked up a promo of the new album after the fact and would say those songs hit much harder live than in the studio.

They're really phenomenal live. Infectious fun.

saw them in Chicago. it was nice, but some of it was a bit too Guitar Hero for me (extended solos and stuff like that). kinda metal-y?

The new record is good too.

Metal-y = bad? Shame on you.

i listen to this song way more than any os mutantes record these days

i saw them live a couple of years ago and it was horrible, just horrible

would not see w/o Rita
I mean even with her they would probably be bad but at least it would be a proper reunion

I haven't seen them in the non-Rita incarnation, but I'm gonna have to agree. It seems like there'd be a fundamental piece missing from the stew. Anyone seen them recently who disagrees? I'd be interested in their take.

they have neither Arnaldo Baptista nor Rita Lee now, do they? I had fun when I saw them but a good deal of that was just Sergio Dias' joy being infectious (especially useful when he's playing his fifteenth epic guitar solo of the night).

I saw the first reunion gig at the Barbican and even then I felt something was missing, like the people on stage were just dressed up as Os Mutantes. I'd say they're fun if you go in with low expectations.

Oh, there was a DVD/Cd set I got of the 'reunion', it's alright and fun, etc.

But, the old fims of them being young and fun was key to the appeal, really.

starting to feel fool metal jacket. "into limbo" sounds like a dude singing a mellow candle song

Should I go and see what tours as Os Mutantes has in store, in 2025? Speaking as a very casual fan who has only ever streamed an album here and there over the years, but has noticed they are playing this weekend and obviously time is against us. Been playing the first three albums on a loop the last couple of days in trying to make this decision, and wondering if I've left it all a bit late (but am now loving them properly)

yes go! saw them last week and twas the best time. bat macumba eh eh

Dunno how it would pertain to current shows, but here's my Voice review of
Mutantes Live—Barbican Theater, London, 2006, which I really liked, though not everybody did, of course: https://myvil.blogspot.com/2016/06/sweet-peaks.html Later liked Haith, co-written w wizard Tom Ze.

I saw them open up for the Flaming Lips at the Hollywood Bowl in... 2006 maybe? It was excellent.

i saw them a few years ago, it was awesome. was just sérgio and some folks, assuming it's the same?

I've seen a couple of posts in much earlier ilx threads saying the reformed band were variants of "just horrible", dunno if it was the same person twice so wanted to check... I'm aware lineup-wise it'll be like going to see present-day 10cc

No rita no credibility

Definetly go!

*Definitely

It's bleedin' sold out now! Got all the alerts set on the usual places now, though

Enjoyed them even if no Rita awhile back, but missed them on this tour

I got a ticket after all, I reckon it'll be great
