4 stars Exceptional Debut by argentine band LÁQUESIS.

A lot of prog movement is going on in Argentina lately. With bands like Jinetes Negros, William Gray, Nexus and Laquesis recently. Encouraging people to write music in this particular beautiful genre.

This album has so many great moments. Each track is unique in its way but contains that mark that caracterizes Laquesis. The album starts with a rock vibe with Efecto Placebo, when english vocals sets in I got really surprised as I like to sing along the chorus.

As the next songs are all instrumentals with exception of Lemuria, which is sang in spanish another surprise he, this album is full of surprises! Incredibly well written transitions, keyboards breaks within the same song, really emotional guitar solos makes this album quite a journey for prog listeners. "Hamacamantic" remains my favourite track in the album. Although its starts with some clearly kansas influenced riffs it soon becomes something really diferent. Really like the jazzy elements this band includes in its music.

In conclusion, really great new band from my country. Hope to see them live soon. 4 stars and maybe a little bit more cause I think they have a lot of potential to deliver really great stuff in the future.
