5.0 out of 5 stars Great CD, January 23, 2006

This is a really good cd. It meshes kind of Metal/Industrial/classical/traditional spanish music. Gaia, the second song, is an incredible work that lasts for 11 nonstop fantastic minutes of pure musical joy. La Conquista that follows it picks up the pace even more making it an eventful ride. Throughout the CD you will be taken on almost a rollercoaster ride of music as it goes from fast to slow to moderate to fast etc. Great CD, worth the 50 odd US dollars they're asking for it.

I don't know where I heard of this band and why, but I must admit that it is one of the strangest bands ever. Its not that they sound weird, but they are a celtic prog metal band who sings in Spanish.

Strangeness aside, they are really good. The song arrangements fit right into place and they weave around celtic melodies with relative ease. Also they manage to sing celtic music in spanish and not sound completely ridiculous as some other bands would, and for that they deserve at least some credit. I am not sure what they are singing about, so that the cheese factor of which others spoke is lost on me.

Actually, I love not understanding metal bands. They very rarely have anything good to say, but they have a good mouth with which to project their vocals. If you never heard Mago de Oz find their records and listen to them, again and again.

Es un magnifico disco, es el mas reciente de Mago de Oz y es bastante bueno, claro no mejor que finisterra o folktergeist pero si es un cambio muy bueno y necesario en su musica, tiene una muy buena historia y sobre todo, siguen tocando igual de bien que siempre. lo recomiendo, es buenisimo!
