4 stars I certainly hope more of you progheads out there would listen to this excellent band from Chile. I think it's a modern and mature album that grows after each listening. The use and mixture of instruments is very interesting, you will find influences from various genres such as folkprog, jazzrock, artrock and even progmetal. The use of vibraphone fits the music perfect, and together with flute it melts into a warm harmony. As other reviewers has mentioned IAN ANDERSON from JETHRO TULL must have been an influence. But on most of the track the guitar that can be heavy as well as fusion and acoustic is dominating. SATRIANI, VAI and AL DIMEOLA must have been great influences on the guitarist among others. The lack of vocal is not important; the music itself does the work.. At least you whom are a JETHRO TULL fan (or even a FOCUS fan) should purchase this; I think it definite will appeal to you. An exciting album, I'll give it a strong 4, and I'm looking forward to their next album.
