Cabeça Dinossauro
Résumé
Cabeça Dinossauro (Portuguese for Dinosaur Head) is the third studio album by Brazilian rock band Titãs, released on 25 June 1986. It was their first album produced by Liminha, who was the director of WEA at the time of the album's recording, which facilitated the relationship between band and label; and their first gold album, certified as such in December 1986.
In February 1986, before a show in São Paulo, vocalist Branco Mello told newspaper O Estado de S. Paulo that the then upcoming album would have a "more dry and raw rock" and a "more primitive, more visceral" sound.
Vocalist Arnaldo Antunes and guitarist Tony Bellotto's arrest for drug possession in 1985 (and the former's subsequent three-year house arrest sentence); the "relative failure" of previous album Televisão; and the will by the band to take a heavier direction influenced the music on this album. But they did not suddenly decide to turn punk. The ingredients, according to keyboardist and vocalist Sérgio Britto, were already present in the band. Bellotto says the band already showed signs of this new sound during shows
Time showed that this subgenre was in our DNA, which is why 'Cabeça' is a big feature, with all this questioning, the criticism that we see in the lyrics, the punk, but also the reggae, funk. I think in this album we found the way.
Besides, then drummer Charles Gavin considered the troubled moments lived both by the band and by Brazil at that time were also influencing factors:
There was the moment of Brazil which was drawing itself much problematic, a military dictatorship still in the process of breaking down, Tancredo's death. The mood was very delusional, a dystopian scenery. And there was also our moment as a band. We were emerging from "Televisão", our second release, miscomprehended by the label [Warner], which was not well worked. This caused a certain distaste, a certain skepticism towards the music, the career. We came upon the album angry at the industry, the label, everyone.
Co-producer Pena Schmidt saw the album as "the moment of truth.
