"Another album by Caetano with A Outra Banda da Terra, released during a period he describes as the best of his life. Some of the songs are pop-orientend, but most are folkier. A few hits/classics here: "Lua De São Jorge", "Beleza Pura", "Menino do Rio" (theme of a feature film with the same name)..."  [+]  Reply

"How am I just hearing this? It’s stunning. It’s ... hard to explain. Shitty “review”. But I’ll try to be back later when I’ve digested it a couple dozen times. First takenis that it’s an utterly immersive and emotional metal album like none I’ve heard."  Reply

"My favourite Against Me! album. I think this album strikes a good balance between angsty punk rock (Turn Those Clapping Hands Into Angry Balled Fists) and slower acoustic songs that you wouldn't expect to find on a punk record (Sink, Florida Sink)."  Reply

"One thing that makes this album very strong is the bass and drum foundation of the sound. This album is really built on solid ground, give an ear to those bass and drum lines ..."  Reply

"After listening to this album, it is a vast, atmospheric album that is both somber but also beautiful in design. Recommend it to fans of albums like Harmony in Ultraviotet or Virgins from Tim Hecker or Birth of a New Day from 2814."  Reply
