Most dedicated to skatists and heavy-metal fans, the 2nd floor of this building on Senador Pompeu street, on the heart of the nervous Fortaleza downtown, offers us almost 10 different cd shops (although they are all very alike on the stuff they sell...). After visiting stores with suggestive names as Planet CD's, Darkness, Gallery's Cds, Chakal and so on, you'll agree with me that the most interesting spot on this gallery is OPUS DISCOS for its nice variety, for its rarities, for its bootlegs and for its side dishes: t-shirts, videos, rings and other skate material. Come here to browse for your favorite heavy/punk/rap/progressive/alternative/reggae/ska and even blues stuff with prices around 20-35 Reais (10-18 dollars in 1999). But come prepared for the "wildness" of the downtown of a big brazilian city...
