In Rafael Bittencourt's words, "the concept [of the album] is the history of Brazil at its early stages".

Flute solo on 'Carolina IV' is a citation/variotaion from 'Bebê', a theme by Hermeto Paschoal.
Taiko excerpts and sounds on 'Holy Land' taken from the album 'Ondekoza New' by Ondekoza.
Speech and sounds on 'The Shaman' taken from the album 'Música Popular do Norte 4'.

Soon after the album was released, the band ran a competition for fans to guess what "Z.I.T.O." stands for.
