Sometimes what they say is true and a band's first album is really their best work. While Kinky's self-titled first release was a non-stop sexy Latin techno dance party from beginning to end, this album is just full of sounds I'm already tired of. I really don't need to hear the Talking Heads all over again or Technotronic for that matter. I've had this CD in rotation in my car for months and short of really liking the opening track, Sister Twisted, and the haunting Adonde Van Los Muertos (Where Do The Dead Go), the rest is almost work to listen through. This CD is taking a long time to grow on me.

I bought this album about three weeks ago at a concert and instantly felt the energy. This is unlike Kinky and Atlas, but it is a good album. You should definately give it a try.

4.0 out of 5 stars A little techno, a little...B52s?!, September 6, 2006

While their debut, "Kinky" was all about the danceable techno and their sophmore disc (my favorite, "Atlas") triumphed in infectious, highly melodic pop (lots of it in English) their third spin takes them in both those directions, and then some. After a few tight electrojams and some balladic musings, it's a free-for-all of chronologic and ethnic influences, from 80's quirk bands, The B52s and Men at Work (whose lead singer Colin Hay guests on "Monday Killer" to goose-pimpling effect!), to 90's hard-core femme rapper Nefertiti who engages in a call-and-response-rap with the lead singer on "Lay Back." "Queen (Reina)" is another marvel from the Mexican Talking Heads!
