“The album features songs that engage with grunge, Clube da Esquina, forró, and mangue beat, as well as references to Elton John and Porcupine Tree, resulting in a uniquely Brazilian take on progressive rock, even though sung in English. Highlights include “Germinal,” an ode to rediscovering one’s essence; “Rocky Soul,” addressing serenity and resilience in the face of adversity; “After the Future,” inspired by Franco Berardi and critical of the individualism fostered by social media; “Made of Time,” a philosophical reflection on life’s transience; and “Regina’s Heart,” which also receives a sensitive and poetic music video. The track “Wake up the River” incorporates mangue beat textures, while “Place Left for Love” blends groove rock with accordion and hints of forró. This fusion of local and universal elements solidifies Germinal Band’s mission to create a genuinely Brazilian progressive rock, while still engaging with the genre’s international traditions.”
