Un disco de Santa Sabina donde se aprecia su estilo dark, gotico - elegante. Este album contiene uno de los grandes clasicos de la banda: "Estando Aqui No Estoy". Producido por Adrian Belew, guitarrita de King Crimson (y tambien productor de "El Silencio" de Caifanes, este disco tiene un sonido mas electronico y pesado que el material anterior del grupo, muestra de esto son canciones como "Ajusco Nevado" y "Una Cancion Para Louis (Vampiro)". Hay tambien canciones con influencia del Jazz como "Simbolos".

Excelentes letras, arreglos magnificos, la voz de Rita Guerrero es impecable (como siempre). Un gran album, debes tenerlo.

Canciones recomendadas: "Nos Queremos Morir", "Luz del mar" y "Despertar a los muertos".

While the music of Santa Sabina is a hypnotic blend of goth, rock, jazz, etc. what really makes the group stand out from the legions of rock en español acts is its vocalist Rita Guerrero. Rita has just one of the most enchanting voices I have ever heard. Tracks like "Miedo" "Nos Queremos Morir" "Insomnio", etc. showcase her to a "t." This whole album is just amazing. By far their best work (right up there with their debut)

If you are familiar with Mexican rock, this needs no introduction. If not, start here. This is the very best of the best. Includes wonderful musicianship: huge, funky bass lines, intricate top-kit drumming, jazz-influenced piano, heavy guitar minus cliches, and a breathtaking vocalist (I'm talking about her singing). Adrian Belew provides superb, clear production and even appears on two tracks. Highly recommended for rock fans, especially open-minded progressive rockers. Prepare to be blown away by this wonderful, unique music.

This is a great oportunity for people willing to know real mexican "for young music" and what it is to be a rock lover in Mexico. You will hear notes of silence, alcohol, dreams, sex and life in the nightly urban environment of Mexico City. I heard Santa Sabina first in 1988 or 1989 when they were not famous in a bar called "Rock Stock" in Mexico City. They will always be in my existence. I love Rita Guerrero, the singer, and the fat Bass Player is really a talented musician. Please do also look for their first album either CD or whatever, and look for the tunes: "No me alcanza el Tiempo", "Chicles" and so on. It is great.

Santa Sabina is one the best bands to come from the latin rock revolution. Superb vocals and music. Dark, melodic lyrics and beats. I recommend all of their artistic works.

A great work. The singer is one of the best in Mexico. She have a wonderful voice. If you like to hear rock, you have to lisen this album.
