4 stars I haven't listened to any previous incarnations of Don Caballero but I like this a lot. It is majorly guitar-led. There are multiple guitar parts and loops. Very much inspired by Larks' Tongues era King Crimson. You can hear the influence in the repetitive use of the major third harmonies and tritones. The majority of the songs feature odd time signatures, which any prog fan would love. One of my favorite aspects of the album is its compositional style. Each song features sections that compliment each other very well. To be honest I'd compare it to some of Egg's work. The guitarist makes use of a loop pedal, which can end up in some sloppy live performances. The bass guitar is not a prominent part. I would recommend the album to anyone interested in modern progressive rock/avant-garde music. :)
