Work on the album initially began in early 2011, while Heitor Gomes was still a member and the band was signed to Sony Music; however, due to numerous technical issues, recordings were cancelled.[1] Subsequently, they broke off with Sony and signed to Radar Records, who restarted the work from scratch now with Champignon and Marcão already on the line-up.[2] It counts with guest appearances by Zeca Baleiro, Marcelo Falcão and Marcelo Nova.

The studio version of "Céu Azul", which appears in Vol. 1 as a bonus track, was included in the soundtracks of the telenovelas Balacobaco and Império. According to vocalist Chorão, he wrote it following his divorce from long-time wife and companion Graziela "Grazon" Gonçalves.[3]

Critical reception

Anderson Nascimento of Galeria Musical gave the album a rating of 4 out of 5 stars.[4] Mauro Ferreira of blog Notas Musicais also gave it the same rating, calling it a release "filled with energy and authenticity".[5]
