Music reviews of Flores De Alquiler
Music Review: Absolutely wonderful Rock en Español!
Rating: 5 Stars
There is an interesting story behind Flores de Alquiler. This is the second album by the Spanish group La 5a Estacion. The first one was produced in Madrid and this one was produced in Mexico City. And you can really tell, the Mexico hit "El Sol no Regresa" mixes solid Rock en Español with Mariachi Music and the result is awesome without being corny at all.
La 5a Estación actually is enjoying a much stronger success in Mexico that its early sucess in Spain (it's currently Top 5 in Mexico's Mix Up). And now the process is working upside down: they are now making an entrance into Spain helped by its Mexico success -- sort of upside down to the many spanish groups that come to Mexico after a sucessful career in Spain.
The band sounds a lot like the 80s-90s sound of the great Rock en Español bands with a solid rock and roll attitude to it. The CD includes both solid rock tunes as well as very decent power ballands, all of them supported by strong vocals. The lyrics are very strong too and add to the overall robustness of the band.
The whole CD is very enjoyable. Songs to hear: "El Sol no Regresa" (the mariachi music is nicely mixed with the rock tune creating a sort of a Mexican party-over-tequila environment on a lost love story), "Daría" (strong rock pop tune, also talks about lost love), "Mi Ciudad" ( a nice homage to Mexico City --"Esta es mi ciudad, Madrid ya se quedo atrás", "Distrito de mi Soledad") and of course "Flores de Alquiler" (a nice piano + Guitar intro for a Power Ballad Mellodic feel). The album also includes a couple of covers of "Si yo fuera Mujer" and "Voy a pasarmelo bien".
If you like Rock en Español this is an album you shouldn't miss.
