"I was very impressed with Solunas debut album For All Time. Its nothing we haven't heard before but the girls have fairly nice voices and have put together a nice collection of beautiful ballads, sweet midtempo songs, and a few latin flavored dance tracks. Where the girls falter is their ability to go for that spine tingling moment that all power ballads have. Just when you think they're gonna go there and hit that high note with all of thier might, they hold back and settle for a a soft ooh. For All Time and I'll Be Waiting For You are sung beautifully. Bring it To Me is a funky and a lot of fun, and Don't Wanna Live My Life Without You is stuck in the early 90's, but will definetly get you groovin. Nothing Looks Good On Me But You is by far the best song on the album. Sweet lyrics,lovely harmonies, and an engaging chorus prove that these girls extremly talented. A few songs fall flat like the cover of I'm All Out of Love, buut for the most part a highly enjoyable, yet unoriginal album."

4 Latinas with absolutely beautiful voices

"At first glance, one might write off the young ladies of Soluna as just another succession in the endless line of girl groups. But when you hear these girls sing, I think all preconceptions are written off. Though the material is nothing new or especially unique, together these girls have absolutely gorgeous harmonies that are music to your ears, even if there is no music backing them up, as in the beautiful a capella song "Te Vengo A Decir". If you're skeptical about Soluna, I think this song should be your first listen. They have some of THE best harmonies from any girl group I've heard in a long time. Being that these girls are all Latinas broadens their appeal even more. Though some may see this as a marketing tool, hearing the passion in any of the 4 Spanish tracks will show that these girls aren't trying to exploit their backgrounds, but share their heritage and a different language with every person who takes the chance to listen to the album. If any of you have AOL, it is an absolute MUST that you go check out the Soluna version of Sessions@AOL. They did the whole set a capella, and once again, I can't say this enough, they sound absolutely beautiful throughout. Soluna have amazing harmonies, great personalities, and in my opinion, a great future ahead of them. Definitely check out these ladies, and give them a chance."

Soluna For All Time & Forevermore!

"Soluna is the hottest new group to hit the planet bringing to us a few bonuses, such are the fact that they are Hispanic and they sing in Spanish. Soluna offers multi-beat flared tracks that feature more than one genre of music in them. All their tracks have beats such as that of pop, dance, R&B, rock, and Latin. Take my word when I say these hot talented ladies can sing. Aurora, T, Jessica, and Ameríca are the talents of this fabulous group and they really do put there all into their music. Track Highlights1.) Bring It To Me - This song is very fierce with a hot beat and the ladies have a tragic sound to their voices in this track. This track is extremely catchy and the girl's voices flow so well over the semi-rock flared beat. 2.) Hey Hey, You You - This track has hit potential because it is extremely catchy and the way it was produced sounds great. The beat has a similar sound to "Bring It To Me," but this track is still extremely original.3.) Nothing Looks Good On Me But You - I guess you can consider this song as one of those power-ballads. The beat isn't exactly slow and the girl's voices flowing slowly sound so beautiful. This is a very endearing song that has a pretty good meaning. 4.) For All Time - This track is a bit more of a ballad than track three. This song goes beyond the border because it's so charming with its sentimental lyrics. 5.) Don't Wanna Live My Life Without You - This track has a bit of a Latin enticed beat, which makes up for the generic sounding lyrics. The lyrics are a bit generic but it's not a bad song, it's pretty poppy.6.) I'll Be Waiting For You - To tell you the truth I found this ballad more beautiful than that of `For All Time". This ballad has beautiful lyrics and the girl's sound more passionate. 7.) So In Love - This is a mid-tempo song leaning towards the ballad side. The lyrics to this song are somewhat generic but it's still an adorable pop song. 8.) Te Vengo A Decir (Interlude) - A little girl starts singing this poem like song and sounds really adorable and then the girls begin to sing so beautifully. 9.) Spanish Lullaby - This song has a strong Spanish sound and the lyrics are pretty creative and unique. They also have a few Spanish lyrics in this hot track.10.) All Out Of Love - This ballad is a bit generic using lyrics that have been reiterated in other song. This track isn't that original and the sound isn't that much better. 11.) He Should Be You - This song has a great dance friendly beat and has the same potential of their track "Bring It To Me". This song has the same fierce beats and vocals as that of tracks 1 and 2.12.) Monday Mi Amor - This track is like any typical Hispanic track except with English vocals, which makes this track somewhat unique and original. 13.) Luna Mia - This track is completely in Spanish and has a mid-tempo beat. The title translates to "My Moon" and the song sounds pretty adorable.14.) Bring It To Me (Spanish Version) - The Spanish version of this song sounds equally as great as the English version. Not many Spanish songs are produced like this so it sounds pretty unique. Although, they do leave the "Bring It To Me" part of the song in this version, I guess the translation wouldn't flow right.15.) Por La Eternidad (For All Time) - This track literally translates to "For Eternity" but I guess that's the closest they could come up with without losing the meaning through translation. I personally found this version better than the English version, "For All Time". This album isn't too shabby for it being Soluna's first debut, although there is some needed work on the creativeness of the lyrics. Let these four attractive, talented singers into your music horizons. This album is pretty different than the same reiterated pop that is constantly released so if your looking for something knew and spicy, here it is."
