With bands formed for each song, drummer Aquiles Priester (W.A.S.P., Edu Falaschi, Hangar) surprises with versions of songs by Brazilian bands from the eighties, as well as Rock and Heavy Metal classics. Among the participations are names like Supla, Clemente Tadeu, Liminha, PJ, among many other internationally renowned artists. In addition to participating in the collabs, Cristiano Wortmann, Júnior Carelli, Raphael Dafras and Vanessa Lockhart went on tour with Aquiles in 2022 to perform these songs live and it seems that more shows should be scheduled for 2023.
