"Unbelievable, simply unbelievable. Never before have I heard a band that puts so much effort into every song that they create. Each song on this album is a work of art. The music fits the mood of the lyrics. The lyrics are magical. The album is truly a gem.I don't speak much Spanish. Almost all that I know I've learned by listening to HDS. I wasn't particularly interested in learning Spanish either. Yet I cannot put down this album. Or any of their other albums either (Avalancha, El Espiritu Del Vino, El Mar No Cesa, Rarezas... and Enrique Bunburry's solo album Radical Sonora.)"

"hands down, simply the best latin rock album of all time! and don't let any body tell you otherwise,starting of with the classic "entre dos tierras" a dark arrangement of metal sounding guitars,spiked with a long arena rock sounding solo via juan valdivia(guitars),the whole album is incredible, when i first listened to it i couldnt believe there was music out there like this, there is not one filler song on the whole album, it contains lyrics that, make you want to go out and punch a wall,and some that make you want to hug your girl friend, but never loosing that dark feel,simply e.bunbury(vocals,guitars) at his best, along with drummer pedro andreu and bassist joaquin cardiel,this album stands alone."

""Senderos de Traición"(Paths of Treason)by the fantastic Heroes del Silencio is a great rock album anywhere in the world.They here provide a killer combo of all their best qualities:Enrique Bunbury's spellbinding voice is at its best and dovetails neatly with Juan Valdivia's slightly celtic influenced guitar playing creating an unquestionably original sound.The opener"Entre dos Tierras"is possibly the best track in here with its epic scope and compelling chorus but the record doesn't flag throughout,with the high points coming one after the other.
"Maldito Duende"is a dark ballad ,unsurpassable in its appeal.
"Malas Intenciones"is where Bunbury really shines and his pronunciation of"Más de un segundo en ti"in the track's coda wins the song by itself.
"Senda"is another great track and as powerful as they ever got.
"Oración"brings back their surfacing emotions and send them to a new high.All in all superb and possibly the best set of songs ever delivered by one of the top bands the movement of spanish sung rock has yet produced."
