Desterro e Carnaval (Portuguese for "Exile and Carnival") is the twelfth studio album by the Brazilian musician Rogério Skylab; the final installment of what he calls the "Trilogia dos Carnavais" (Trilogy of the Carnivals).[1] It was self-released in 2015,[2] and unlike Skylab's previous albums, it didn't see a physical release, being only available through digital download; a trend which would continue for his subsequent outputs.[3] The album counted with guest appearances by Arrigo Barnabé, Michael Sullivan, Luís Capucho, Fausto Fawcett and Tavinho Paes.
"Lívia" is a Portuguese-language version of "Delia's Gone", an American folk song popularized by Johnny Cash. "Mariana" is fully sung in French.
Writing for Galeria Musical, Felipe Lucena gave Desterro e Carnaval the maximum score of 5 stars out of 5, calling it a "delicate and sensitive output" with "reflexive and melancholic lyrics".[4] Conversely, Raul Lima de Albuquerque of Coliseu de Ideias spoke very negatively of the album, calling it "uneven [...] the worst installment of the Trilogia dos Carnavais; definitely inferior to its predecessor [...] weak and uninspired", ultimately rating it with a 3 out of 10. He also criticized the fact that the album didn't receive a physical release, but considered its production "the only good thing about it".[5]
