Does someone actually need to translate the Spanish lyrics? I'm a native so I have no problem in doing that. although I'm not a translator per sei

This album is just marvelous on how it was composed and produced. All the songs are more of an adventure rather than just a song. Cassandra Gemini takes this point on and absolutely nails it.

This is definitely an example of an album you need to listen to from start to finish. Some of the high points here are better than Deloused but for me it also has more unnecessary "experimentation" - probably could've been 10 minutes shorter. Still, it's an excellent album & infinitely better than what came after this...

Finding this really difficult to get into. Been sitting on it for nearly a year.

it's a bit meandering, but some of the softer sections are gorgeous

For the most part the songs are fantastic, but this album meanders a lot.

I feel like I've heard better soundscaping. But that aside I feel like they do all the good parts from this album in other, more coherent and straightfoward albums.

If you're not prepared for a perfect concept album that uses ambient sections to accentuate the more beat driven movements then don't sign up for this.

If you are...prepared to be spellbound.
