"I have been reading reviews of this album and "Fabulosos Calavera", and while most were positive, I've noticed a great deal of negative reaction to the change in Los Fabulosos Cadillacs. My reaction is not anywhere close to negative. I think this CD is brilliant, from the infectious rhythym of "La Vida" all the way to the sad piano of "Alamo". We can't expect the Cadillacs to forever be stuck in the Ska mold. They're artists, and artists grow and change. They draw on the other great musical influences in their lives. This CD is somewhat mellow overall, but still has great power, and an excellent example of that power is track 6, "Pirana, todos los Argentinos somos DT". Vicentico's voice is amazing on the slower tracks "Roble" and "Aguila", Flavio's incredible talent shows in his basslines on "57 Almas", and I believe "Los Condenaditos" is one of their best songs ever. I can't imagine going more than a day or two without hearing this CD from start to finish. I feel that the Cadillacs are, without a doubt, still the best Rock en Espanol band around.
To sum up, I think if you are a true Cadillacs fan, you'll accept and love the band for all their changes, and maybe you'll grow musically, too. That's what it's all about."

THE BEST LATIN ROCK GROUP IN EXISTENCE

"Although as a whole, this is not there best work, there are some songs that are utter masterpieces. This is a group whose talents can rival such acts as U2 and REM. The singer's voice is not as irritating as Cafe Tacuba and shows more passion in his songs than most other artists. Don't get me wrong, Cafe Tacuba is an awesome band, but this is a CD that proves that Los Cadillacs son los mejores del rock latino. Although they could have eliminated the instrumentals and track 10, this CD makes up for it in other songs."
