Lafusa - Quadricolôr

Brasilia's band Lafusa's EP, Quadricolôr, is a - well accomplished - mixture of rock and MPB (Música Popular Brasileira - Popular Brazilian Music). The eight songs contain lyrics and arrangements that had been well worked on. Initially the sound may seem like that of other bands, like Los Hermanos, but when looked at more closely, one notices that Lafusa possesses its own identity. The songs create emotion, but not in an "emo" way. The feeling is really there, but in an intelligent and dense manner. It is an independent work that must be appreciated for, in a time when Brazilian rock seems unified, distinguishing itself by following the opposite direction: that of originality.
