Si te gusta la musica de Juanes y sus discos como "Fijate Bien" entonces te va gustar este ejemplo del lider Juan Esteban Aristizabal que salio antes de comencer su carrera solo. La musica en este disco es suave, muy alegre y claramente pop rocnEspanol. Una de las canciones estelar es "Raza" con sus liricos que todos somos iguales y que no importa si son
"blanco, indio , mulatto o mestizo sangre del mismo color mas no de corazon." La cancion "Azul" demonstra una bolera rockera que es para bailar muy cerca de su pareja, pecho a pecho, alma a alma, muy juntitos. Para mi la mejor cancion es "La Tierra" que se me parece que se escuchaba por el radio todo el tiempo. "Ama la tierra en que nacistes, amala es una y nada mas mujer que te pario, ama tu raza y nada mas, etc" canta el conocido como Juanes en su voz unico. La cancion tiene un sabor pop flamenco y es bellisima. Es claro que tiene un voz excelente y lo demonstra como crecio a una carera solo.Trece canciones de Juanes antes que habia Juanes. No te lo pierdes esta vez que sigue siendo uno de los mejores ejemplos de pop rocnEspanol.

Bueno,yo he tenido la buena fortuna de escuchar el que fué el último disco de Ekhymosis,y hasta ahora no he encontrado otro grupo como ellos,con sus intensas letras y sus excelentes fusiones de ritmos,en lo personal me parece un grupo excelente,producto de mucha inspiración y muchas ganas por parte de sus integrantes,y a pesar de su desaparición siempre seguirán vigentes para unos cuantos seguidores leales,con temas como "Sólo" o "De madrugada" o "Raza",o "La Tierra",tema de la inspiración del lider y compositor (bueno ex-lider actualmente) Juan Esteban Aristizabal,o Juanes como se le conoce ahora,que actualmente está de solista y que presentó un trabajo excelente,producto de tantos años de música e intensa esencia y talento,cuyas fusiones y letra si bien tienen una onda innovadora y más personal guardan ese toque de Ekhymosis.

I can't believe that anyone would give one star to this band. Now that everyone is on the Latino music bandwagon, it is safe to say that this band would have been a hell of a lot more popular had they had their start now. Juan Esteban Aristizabal (Lead vocals, guitar, and composer) is set to launch his solo album any day now, and I expect he will not disappoint. Those who know this compilation album, and have heard their previous albums also realize that these were a bunch of 15-year olds when they got together, and 18 when they had their first hit album, well before many Latin "Rock" bands. I recently rediscovered it, and have been stopped often by people who want to know who they are and where they can pick up the album. I highly recommend it.

In spanish class our teacher added a little spice one day to her lesson. We listened to Roca Rosa and Raza and tried to translate it and sing it. I would normally not enjoy the pop kind of sound but I really thought it was great. It was so much fun and the music was the type to make you want to get up and dance. I really enjoyed this cd. The music is so great. Everyone should have a copy!!!
Adios,

I've been following this guys since they started playing kind of "metallica's" way of heavy metal with a mixture of some harder trash influences and alternative cuts. As they grew, they used other kind of influences, from latin rhythms (such as cumbia) and more pop-rock alike stuff. Their music turn to be more mature,original and rich.

This album is the result of years of work trying to establish them, finding a definitive sound and being what they really want to be, that's why this album is called Ekhymosis. The last 3 songs are re-edited songs from the past.

This is a very good CD with high quality arrangements.it is a very interesting fusion of colombian music and international rock and pop. I think this is a very good sample of alternative rock. Este es un CD muy bueno con arreglos musicales de alta calidad. pienso que este cd es una muy buena muestra del rock alternativo. Buena por estos colombianos

EXCELENTE!! Totally great!, I even like this earlier work more than the latest he's come up with... great songs, it has all the cool hits!

After listening to the Juanes CDs, I decided to get some Ekhymosis CDs to see his past work in that band. I was very impressed. This is one of the best CDs I've ever heard. It's an innovative mix of rock and pop sounds that produces a very enjoyable sound. I think I might even prefer this CD to more recent Juanes music (even though I think Juanes is an amazing artist). It's too bad that Ekhymosis broke up.

This is the true Juanes, the one we saw on "Un Dia Normal". An artist with a great energy, a need to make music and let everyone know what he thinks. This album reflects the rocks roots of the now pop singer. With his latest album "Un Dia Normal", Juanes changed from being a revel rock singer to a submissive pop. I know his stuff sells, and that is why he has changed it so much, but he needs to remember he statted to make music in the first place. Juanes please go back to your rock roots.

Este DC no solamente esta lleno de buena música, también un gran nivel lírico y una gran variedad ritmica que trae desde ritmos Colombianos hasta un poco de Rock y baladas
