Bloco do Eu Sozinho is the second album from Brazilian band Los Hermanos, released in 2001.
During the production, the band was pressured by their label, Abril Music, to release another hit. Their debut album, Los Hermanos (album), sold over 350,000 units. To alleviate tension, the band elected to produce the album in the mountains of Rio De Janeiro, where they could work without distraction. During production, bassist Patrick Laplan chose to leave the group to focus on his own project, and was allegedly dissatisfied with the band's evolving sound. The band's producer and collaborator, Alexandre Kassin, stepped in to replace him during the album's recording. When the album was completed and presented to Abril Music, the label rejected it due to a perceived lack of potential hits and an assessment of the production as amateurish. The label insisted on the album being remastered. In a compromise, producer Marcelo Sussekind agreed to remix the album. Sussekind favoured the original version and thus produced a version almost identical to the original, which was then submitted to the record company.[4][5]
Sales for Bloco do Eu Sozinho did not meet the label's expectations, selling fewer units than their previous release. The album was however nominated at the 2002 Latin Grammy Awards for "Best Brazilian Rock Album." The band would see success from their following album, Ventura. Los Hermanos also began touring regularly, often doing several shows a year.[6][7][8][9]
