Review
This is a CD reissue of Novo Aeon, which was originally released in 1976 at the height of Raul Seixas' career as a natural follow-up to the classic Gîtâ. The most famous track of the album is the very Raul-esque rock ballad "Tente Outra Vez," with its characteristic "epic" approach. The pulsating and overly romantic "Tu És O MDC da Minha Vida" is also one of the best songs that Seixas recorded. The music on the rest of the album includes gentle falsetto tunes ("A Maçã" and "Sunseed"), '50s-inspired rock ("Eu Sou Egoista" and "Rock do Diabo"), eccentric exhibitions in thoughtful quirkiness ("Caminhos" and "Peixuxa"), and even forro ("É Fim de Mês"), all performed in Raul Seixas' own very personal style. ~ Philip Jandovský, Rovi| Novo (2007 Album by Original Soundtrack) | |

Novo Aeon (Portuguese for New Aeon) is the third studio solo album by Brazilian musician Raul Seixas. It was released in 1975. Most of this album's tracks were heavily influenced by the work of Aleister Crowley and other occultist works, with the major example being the title track. Not as successful as Raul's previous album, it was a sales' failure. However, it contains some of Raul's most famous songs, such as "Tente Outra Vez", "Rock do Diabo" and "A Maçã".
In 2007, the Brazilian version of the magazine Rolling Stone chose Novo Aeon as the 53rd most revolutionary Brazilian album of all time[1].
