Macacos Das Ruas De Évora - Macacos Das Ruas De Évora

Review by Malcolm Davidson

Macacos Das Ruas De Évora's self-titled album is a unique blend of traditional Portuguese music with modern influences. The band's use of traditional instruments, such as the accordion and the cavaquinho, gives the album a distinct sound that sets it apart from other contemporary releases. The lyrics, sung entirely in Portuguese, add to the overall authenticity of the album.

The album's opening track, "Macacos Das Ruas De Évora," sets the tone for the rest of the album with its catchy melody and upbeat rhythm. Other standout tracks include "Fado Dos Macacos," which features haunting vocals and a beautiful guitar solo, and "Alentejo," a lively track that showcases the band's instrumental prowess.
