"The God Master", a tribute to humorist Costinha, contains samples of his 1981 comedy album O Peru da Festa. Likewise, "Away Doom" is composed mostly of samples of shouts by then-Hermes & Renato member Gil Brother. The cover art was drawn by cartoonist and illustrator Mozart Couto.[4]
Gates of Metal Fried Chicken of Death was critically acclaimed upon its release, with its humorous and inventive songwriting and guest appearances being praised,[5] and according to 2006 data it sold over 40,000 copies.[6] Music videos were made for "Evil Papagali" and "Metal Is the Law", the latter receiving a nomination for an MTV Video Music Brazil Award in 2006, in the "Video of the Year" category.
