5.0 out of 5 stars "La voz tambien es una arma"
Ya tengo mas que un ano escuchando este disco y todavia no me canso de estos vatos de Monterey, Mexico. El disco es bien chido y cada cancion tiene una introducion por "Chuntaros Radio Poder." Los dj 's que hablan son bien chistosos, hablando de un modo para La Raza por los dos lados de la frontera. Si es posible el disco es mejor que su primer disco y eso esta...

3.0 out of 5 stars Let Down!
I enjoyed the concept of the cd, using DJs from Nuevo Leon to announce the songs but it hides a fact, the songs are so much weaker than their first release "Libres Y Locos". I don't regret buying this CD, I especially enjoyed La Chicana, but if you want to get blown away by this band get their their first CD.

Ya tengo mas que un ano escuchando este disco y todavia no me canso de estos vatos de Monterey, Mexico. El disco es bien chido y cada cancion tiene una introducion por "Chuntaros Radio Poder." Los dj 's que hablan son bien chistosos, hablando de un modo para La Raza por los dos lados de la frontera. Si es posible el disco es mejor que su primer disco y eso esta diciendo algo porque el primer disco era uno de los mejores que a salido de Mexico en los ultimos anos de RocnEspanol. Si te gusta la musica de Molotov te va gustar este version de hip-hop Mexicano. Utilizan varios ritmos, especialmente la cumbia, nortena ragamuffin y todo el tiempo con un sabor unico de hip-hop Monterey. Los dj's que hacen la introducion son bien chistosos hablando en esa idioma unica de los dos paises(EUU Y Mexico) que se conose como calo. La musica es una mezcla para todos que disfrutan lo mejor de lo nuevo, la vanguardia a el mero punto del movimiento en RocnEspanol. La musica tiene mucha energia y claramente cuando lo escuchas te va dar esa misma energia. No hay ni una cancion debil, todas son buenas. No te puedes cansar de este disco porque es tan chido y cada vez es mejor que la ultima vez que lo escuchastes. Estos vatos son de aquellas. Que esperas, ya compra lo!

5.0 out of 5 stars un disco increible, May 22, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Chuntaros Radio Poder (Audio CD)
One of the most phenomonal disks I have heard. A smooth blend of spanish rock, cumbia and rap. Its a fearless album that takes its music to another, shaking off labels and letting the music speak for itself. El Gran Silencio combines great music with an incredible voice and words. There`s not a single song that I didn`t like. Uno de los mejores discos que he escuchado.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bien que dice el DJ, November 25, 2003
By 
This review is from: Chuntaros Radio Poder (Audio CD)
...que nos queda...escuchar a Chuuuuuntaros Radio Poderrrrr.

Generos musicales vienen y van...el chotis es NUESTRO.

El concepto de este cd y el 'dia tipico de una etacion' es algo que necesitaba el mundo musical. Hasta ahora, todos han perdido el concepto de ser originales. Estos locos, sin embargo, me dan fe que SI HAY todavia artistas que aman al arte y no necesariamente la lana.

El primer cd era muestra de un diamante en bruto, y ahora se ve que se estan puliendo y madurando. Espero que nunca se cansen de crear esta musica tan buena.

5.0 out of 5 stars Classic!, January 6, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Chuntaros Radio Poder (Audio CD)
I have liked El Gran Silencio's music on and off before and after this album. All I can say is that this is their very best up to date.
It's innovative how this album is presented as a radio broadcast. Plus the music with different cumbia variations makes it even more interesting.
Highlights are many on this one.
Worth checking out!

5.0 out of 5 stars Emerging NEW sound From MExico, September 25, 2001
By 
Francisco Lopez (New Haven, CT United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Chuntaros Radio Poder (Audio CD)
This band is mixing the old and the new to create something never before seen coming out of northern Mexico. They will embody the new generation of Mexican on both sides of the border. There is so many different sounds on this CD that nobody know how to catagorize them. If you like good music, especially latin rock and cumbias you will fall in love with this band. Also they vatos look so promising that the same producer that built the Red Hot Chill Peppers is their Producer

El Gran Silencio has returned to bring us even more of their spectacular sound. Just like in their last album, this band sucessfully mixes every type of music to create a wonderful blend that makes this group so unique. If you want to hear something new (or if you liked the last one) BUY THIS CD NOW!

5.0 out of 5 stars Ozomatli has met their match!!, March 2, 2002
By 
cinco2u (Racine, WI United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Chuntaros Radio Poder (Audio CD)
I checked out this CD after being blown away by Celso Pina's "Barrio Bravo" on which they appeared. Fortunately I discovered another gem out of Mexico. Being a product of my father's conjunto music as well as American rock, alternative, and hip-hop, I related to this CD immediately. Horns and electronic sounds fall nicely between catchy vocal hooks and a smooth rock/hip-hop style of rap. Even more refreshing is the accordian at the forefront of a ground breaking, cutting edge music. All of this sits nicely with Latin rythms (primarily cumbia) and a few rock beats as well. With unique song arrangements, a variety of scales, and great vocals, these boys are on to something big for the generation of latinos that fall between worlds of traditional and new. Weird, interesting, and dynamic, a must buy for those who appreciate artistic innovation along with good energetic fun.
