Jupiter Apple and Bibmo Presents: Bitter

Jupiter Apple and Bibmo Presents: Bitter (also referred to by its shortened name Bitter) is a collaborative album between the Brazilian musicians Jupiter Apple and Bibiana "Bibmo" Morena, who also was his domestic partner at the time.[1] It was released in February 2007 by Goiânia-based independent label Monstro Discos[2] as a prelude to the musician's then-upcoming album Uma Tarde na Fruteira, scheduled to be released later that year by Elefant Records in Spain.[3] Its raw, stripped-down sonority which contrasts with Jupiter Apple's previous releases was influenced by the likes of David Bowie, The Rolling Stones, The Stooges, Bob Dylan and The Kinks.[4][5]
