History of creation and promotion

The name of the album is translated from Portuguese as “I love”, in connection with this one of the main topics on the disc is love and feelings. In 2016, the leader and vocalist of the group Oliver Sykes in one of the South American countries met his second wife, Alyssa Sulls, who has Portuguese roots - the girl and feelings for her inspired Oliver to write the release. Even before work on the album began, the group was going to record in joint material with the American nu metal band Limp Bizkit . In an interview, Jordan Fish said that he and Sykes went to Los Angeles to help Limp Bizkit write music for their new album, but in the end nothing came of it. The masterpieces were later used to create the second single, “wonderful life”, which was also attended by the British black metal star Dani Filt .
