The review

So, as you may have guessed, the whole album is in Spanish.It starts out strong with ‘En su prisión’ which starts off with a heavy drum and guitar, the vocals are clear and almost shouted, I don’t speak a word of Spanish but if I did i’d be able to understand clearly ‘Adicción’  the second song keeps the heaviness but increases the speed its also the shortest song on the album, there's a really good solo around the middle of it, it comes off as very early 80’s thrash metal meets 90s grunge sound.

‘El Pacto’ is a lot slower than the last song, around the 2 minute mark there's a slow drawn out instrumental with heavily guitars which speeds up around the 3 minute mark this time with cleaner guitars, this is the albums longest song at just over 5 minutes ‘Carretera’ is next and a lot more catchy than previous songs, it sounds closer to Alternative rock/punk rock vibe, skipping ahead a few songs to the title and final track Errante, this being the closing track it begins heavy with the almost shouted vocals and continues that way. It continues with a mix of distorted and clear guitars and feels like a great way to round out the album.

Conclusion 

Although I don’t understand a word of what was said I really liked this release, soundwise it has a lot of inspiration from a lot of different genres which I find really cool, I also love the switch between the clear and distorted guitars, the vocals are clear enough that if I did speak Spanish i’d be able to tell what was said, in general the production and mixing is really good. Everything is just really well put together
