Abismo e Carnaval (Portuguese for "Abyss and Carnival") is the tenth studio album by the Brazilian musician Rogério Skylab; the first installment of what he calls the "Trilogia dos Carnavais" (Trilogy of the Carnivals). It was self-released in 2012. Contrasting with the rock-influenced sonority of Skylab's previous releases, the three albums of the Trilogia dos Carnavais head towards a softer, less experimental direction inspired by Brazilian traditional genres, such as samba, bossa nova and MPB, and by the Tropicalista movement.
MPB pioneer Jorge Mautner was a guest musician on the album; he co-wrote and provided additional vocals for the track "Palmeira Brasileira".
The album can be downloaded for free on Skylab's official website.
