Skygirls is a collaborative album between Brazilian musicians Rogério Skylab and Leandra "Voz del Fuego" Lambert, famous for her work with bands such as Inhumanoids! and Lingerie Underground.[1] Also counting with a guest appearance by Onno bassist Eliza Schinner, the album was released in 2009 through independent label Psicotropicodelia.[2]

An electronica-inflected release strongly inspired by the works of Franco-British band Stereolab, Skylab states that it is one of his favorite albums, and that he was very proud of making it.[3]

The album can be downloaded for free on Skylab's official website.[4]
