For progressive/metal listeners, maybe not for everybody, June 12, 2003
This review is from: Siete Pensamientos (Audio CD)
Well, I'm always looking for metal bands in spanish. This was the first Bolivian band I've ever heard of, and this album turned out being a good surprise.
It obviously is Dream Theater influenced, as many progressive metal bands today, but it adds a symphonic element that is kinda original. The songs are ok, as most progressive songs, they have long instrumental parts where the band experiment with melodies and time changes, but clearly there are about 3 or 4 stronger songs, but good enough for a first album. Soundwise, I think a bit less of effects on the voice and drums would have helped giving this album a better metal sound.
If you're into metal and/or progressive and want something that is not common, buy this album. Too bad there are no samples of their songs here on Amazon.com, but you can get them at the band's website. Try also the Mexican band called Agora.

Is this Bolivian Rock ??, October 6, 2002
This review is from: Siete Pensamientos (Audio CD)
Hi, I'm a little curious about this new rock band, I listened to their cd and I got kind of confused because it wasn't what I expected from it. When I saw that it was a Bolivian band I decided to purchase the cd Because I have some Bolivian stuff really amazing, but when I put this new cd in my stereo I just coulnd't believe there was such a low-level rockband in Bolivia. I listened to other Bolivian bands that sound really good and I thought I woul'd like this too but I didn't. Actually I don't know why I'm rating this band either because I didn't like it at all. It sounds really amateur and the whole cd sounds weak. I don't recommend it.
