FIVE SUNS

Add another half star if you like. This band plays the sort of Zeuhl/RIO hybrid that I love. It is heavy and repetitive, and oppressive. If you like Magma, Univers Zero and King Crimson, you should find something you like on this CD. My somewhat lackluster rating of this album is based on the following considerations: First of all, the album opens with a hell of a bang, but doesn't really keep up full strength. There is somewhat of a flatness and lack of fire in some parts. Secondly, Nebelnest does this sort of thing much better, and are more exciting to listen to...Guapo pales somewhat in comparison. Third, their new album "Black Oni" is much better, same style but more ballsy.
