• They did it again, and without Amaia
  They came with a new album, a new singer, but still the same La Oreja de Van Gogh that does not fail to provide the same unpredictable and flawless sound that keeps them as one of the most successful Spanish bands of this century. Amazing, is the only word that describes this album full of LODVG quality but with a bit of rock that makes the perfect blend for the new singer, whose voice range and power was a good decision to replace former singer Amaia Montero. If you liked the previous album, you would not... more info

• promising restart for LOVG
  Singers are a huge part of a group's sound and appeal, even when the rest of the band is as great as LOVG. So comparisons to the albums with Amaia Montero are inescapable but ultimately we care about today's band, not the 2006 version. This new album is good. I love this group's music and I was glad to hear a beautiful and soulful voice in Leire Martinez. She isn't singing yet with the dynamic range or lyrical sensibility of A.M.

• Amaia has left a huge empty hole that cannot be filled up by anyone.
  LOVG! have always been an excellent band since day one. I'm a sucker for great electronic sounds, moogs, synth leads, and dark atmosphere. These guys have it all!.....or should I say, had it all!

• Stuck with it!
  I don't want to listen to anything else ever since I got this CD... and when I'm not listening to it, the melodies are stuck in my head, and I'm humming them all day long...!!! Even though I like all the CD's songs, my favorite is the mellow "Jueves"... what can I say, I'm an incurable romantic! ;)
  I agree with other reviewers about the new singer. The transition is smooth, almost seamless. She has a very nice, raspy voice (reminiscent of Amaia Montero's).
  Buy the CD, you won't regret it!
