(4 out of 5 stars)

"the first 3 songs on the album are far from triteza's unmistakable sound. the absence of jimmy lavell is so recognizable that the songs almost seem incomplete. the next 4 songs are breath taking, jimmy's appearance is even noticable in track 5 which reminds us of past albums.
this new ep definately shows how much the band has evolved into a slightly different groove with emphasis on a more jazzy/experimental perspective. the interwinding soundscapes created by the melodic guitars are barely present at all. the changes are not for better, or for worse, but simply changes. this is a wonderful album,but almost by a completely different band. if tristeza has been a past favorite, i HIGHLY recomend this album. if your just getting into tristeza, start with older albums and work your way up."
