Cool Sorcery (Brazil) has unleashed one of the wildest, most ambitious egg punk records yet with Terra Invaders. Like a comic book crossover event, mastermind Marcos Assis has gathered musicians/mutants from across the galaxy to contribute their superpowers to this sonic spectacle.

Musically, it’s a delightful chaos. Terra Invaders is the mutant punk equivalent of a hip hop mixtape, a weird mash-up of styles, robots, and punk attitude. While there are some classic egg punk tracks (BRING IT ON!!! feat. Tombeau is a standout), even these leave room for experimentation and surprising twists.

The album’s scope extends far beyond egg punk. idc just kill me already (feat. Billiam) starts conventionally but evolves into an amazing, creative trip. w-we can talk this through (feat. Stray Dogs to Good Homes) sounds like Mac DeMarco’s gone egg punk. You’ll find hints of hip hop and R&B in the psych-ish she’s kinda cute (feat. Dangusangus) and omg they look so bad (feat. Gaivota Naves). There’s even a country-esque tune with The God Man’s Alien Lust (feat. BARF!).

While I don’t love every individual part, as a whole, Terra Invaders is quite magical. This deserves a vinyl release with an accompanying comic book. It’s a mutant punk mixtape that defies easy categorization and is worth digging your teeth in.
