Few times in your life will you run into such a great cd as this one is. Not only are the songs great (deep, meaningful lyrics accompanied by strong music that can get to think of a 16th century spanish bar or of more recent rock bands like Duncan Dhu), but the four voices together interpreting them... it's just... like a trip to a parallel universe floating in a cloud of peace...

There's no "Bunbury stands out from the rest of them..." or "It's definetively Shuarma's style...", it's just the conjunction of four GREAT musicians!

Somos los priveligiados en escuchar y enteder el buen mensaje y tener el buen aprecio a los exponentes en lo mejor en la poesia hecha musica.

Si estan dispuestos a explorar otro nivel de rock en espanol les recomiendo escuchar y disfrutar esta amalgama de cuatro genios de la musica en espanol.

Enrique se junta con tres de sus amigos, Morti, Shuarma y Carlos Ann, para hcer este increible disco que lleva por nombre el Bushido, mismo nombre de la banda que se desintegro oficialmente el mismo dia que finalizaron la gravacion del disco.
Este album es dificil de catalogar en una solia categoria musical, lleva cacniones que van desde la copla hasta el blues.
A mi parecer, las canciones interpretadas por Carlos Ann "Golpe en la Sien" y "L'Amour" son dos de las mejores. Pero mi cancion favorita es "Infectado de tu Amor" una cancion maravillosa interpretada por Morti.
Compre este disco porque soy fan de Bunbury, y de Shuarma. Gracias este disco tuve la fortuna de conocer de Morti y Carlos Ann y descubrir su musica.
Este disco lo recomiendo rotundamente a aquellas personas que tienen una mente muy abierta hacia el rock y que saben que el rock no solo se hace con guitarras, bajo y baterias.

This cd is truly what music is about and what it should be not like so much of the commercialized BS that is out there. The lyrics have yet to be matched by any other title out there. It covers all things from the despairs of love to the social divisions that not only plague Spain but the entire world.

This cd is not easy listening it requires actual thought and if you have lost that then keep listening to the rest of the lovy dovy booty shaking crap, but if your ready for a change get this CD!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is one of my favorite cd's... the participation of all 4 of this magnificent artist is one in a million!!!

Poetry and intospection fills this masterpiece of music so powerful as it is eclectic. There is a sense belonging to all kinds of genre, from the bohemian cabaret style of "Golpe en la sien", to the happy-feeling pop single "la felicidad". The intake of Enrique Bunbury is evident throughout the project, but the creative imput of the rest of the quartet is more than complimentary. Without a doubt a musical classic for people who love the pure and powerul effect of melody and poetry blend together.

I must admit that I knew about this album in Bunbury's official website and I was excited with the idea of Enrique working together with Shuarma (from 'Elefantes')in an album, as for the other two guys, they were only 'the other two guys'. When the album finally came out I was totally dissapointed of Enrique's songs, as for the rest of the songs, simply the work of genius.

The album opens with 'La felicidad', a great song with lyrics that match the genius of the music, which is an exquisite mixture of different rythms. In this song Enrique appears as he will in the whole album: as a shadow for the other three members singing chorus and backup vocals. Carlos Ann has a unique vocal style that will captivate anyone who listens to it, the feeling with which he sings (listen to 'L amour' and you'll see what I mean) gives his music a one of a kind feeling. As for Morti, he finally shows up as the great singer he is (the way he performs songs like 'Te esperare' and 'Magenta' shows a vocal quality that matches his lyrics), the only reference I had from him was as a chorus in Enrique's albums, but in this project he finally shows what he's capable of; a very pleasant surprise.
Enrique's songs totally dissapointed me, his first solo song 'Desmejorado' shows an artist tired, singing as if he had to do it whether he preferred he didn't, even Raphael's version of the song is better than this, 'Sex food' is another song with terrible lyrics and an even worst way of singing (as a matter of fact, he doesn't sing in this one), I guess the only highlight he has is 'As de copas' in which Carlos Ann and Shuarma help raise both the beginning and the end of this theme.
Bottomline, a great album, my personal least favorite songs are Enrique's, but as for the rest of it this album is a must for fans of rock and roll, a wide variety of rythms make this album very difficult to catalogue, but also the great masterpiece of music it is.

It is a good disk, high quality and very original.
The bad apple:
Expensive, more than 20 bucks.

If u r a fan of Bunbury, Calamaro u would enjoy this cd, it has great songs!!
