Reception

Ao Vivo no Mosh has been described as "a bouncingly vigorous slice of vinyl from Brazil's seldom exposed underground" by Spin columnist Andrea Enthal.[3] Although originally well received by rock audiences, the album is now considered an obscurity and a collector's item.[4] The album has been compared to the eponymous debut album by Legião Urbana, which was also released in 1985 and is considered a milestone in the Brazilian post-punk scene of the 1980s.[5]
