Music reviews of Sin Frenos
Music Review: Great, yet too Mexican
Rating: 4 Stars
1. "Que te quería" (The one that loved you)- First single off the album and one of the best. It's different from past first singles in the sound (less Mexican, more rock), but the lyrics remain in la Quinta's style. The song has power, very good to sing along to and Natalia's voice sounds great here. 4/5
2. "Me dueles" (You hurt me)- This song reminds a bit to their smash hit "Me Muero", though this one falls a little short. Love the fact that it starts very smoothly with Natalia's voice and the acoustic guitar and it explodes in the chorus. Though I love their mix of Mexican sounds with pop rock, this time I think they take it too far...this song sounds too Mexican for my taste. The lyrics are good as always ("Me dueles como duelen los ojos, de haberte llorado tanto")
, but I believe less Mexican and more pop rock would have been better and probably would have turn this song into "Me Muero's" continuation. 4/5
3. "Mis labios por tus piernas"(My lips throughout your legs)- The title is very explicit and I love that, because it's different, it's not as generic. It's a fun song very similar to El Mundo se Equivoca's "Para no decirte adiós" sound. This song exemplifies La Quinta Estacion's sound and lyrics. 4/5
4. Te quiero (I love you)- This is the first song that shows new sounds on the album. Love the way it starts. The lyrics are simple but perfect for couples in love, something like what "Algo más" was in Flores de Alquiler, though they are completely different songs musically. It mixes La Quinta's Mexican sounds but also adds other rhythms that make this song interesting. It could be a single because is one of the few ballads in the album and usually they have better luck with their ballads than the upbeat tunes. 4/5
5. Sin frenos (Without Brakes)- The album's title track and pretty conservative in terms of sound and lyrics; it's just one other song from La Quinta. It has their label and I like though its nothing new or refreshing. It sounds like a song that didn't make it to El Mundo se Equivoca. However, I like it because it gives the album its title, and it really explains what the album is about: La Quinta is not afraid of new things. 3/5
6. Recuerdame (Remember me)- This is Natalia's solo version, but I will talk about the duet with Marc Anthony. It's a very powerful song, probably La Quinta's most strong sound wise song. The duet is perfect as they both have great vocal talents and they blend perfectly; neither sounds better than the other. It will probably be the second single, with harsh lyrics and a great performance, La Quinta has to make this a single, for it would help them in countries where Marc Anthony is big. Also it is a power ballad, something La Quinta is known for. This song was made to sing it live, and I would love to see this duet in their concert. 4/5
7. Esta noche no (Not tonight)- Great upbeat song. It will definitely be a single. It's probably the most pop rock song on the album and it has a very easy to stick chorus so it will be a hit. Also, it is a great song for concerts. One of my favorites on the album, it's that song you'll sing on the weekends right before going out. 5/5
8. Es Cierto (It's true)- I like the rhythm and lyrics though I, personally, get a little tired after a while of hearing the "es cierto que...". It's good, not great. Armando Avila's voice is pretty clear here, as in other songs...he should probably become the third band member for he is literally in every aspect of the band: production, writing, music: everything! 3/5
9. Te supieron a poco- They said this song was meant to sound like the album Flores de Alquiler: and it really does. It's like a continuation of "El sol no regresa". That's probably why I like it so much, it's La Quinta's sound all over: Mexican but still more pop rock....something that in this album they have forgotten about a little bit. It would be a single in Flores... or El mundo....but probably in Sin Frenos it will not be one...for they are looking for a new sound and they make it very clear on this album. 5/5
10. Quiereme Mucho (Love me a lot)- One word: experimentation. And the best part is that it actually works. This definitely is something completely new for La Quinta Estacion; it's a fresh sound mix of many rythms. It's fun, but it's not La Quinta. 4/5
11. Engañame (Decieve me)- This one is fairly similar to Recuerdame. I like it because it's powerful and Natalia's voice sounds great...but that's it, it doesn't move me that much. 3/5
12. Sin Salida (Without exit) - This is another song that sounds like Flores de Alquiler. It's fun and very La Quinta. I like it, but then again, this is the way I like La Quinta Estacion...without much experimentation with other sounds. 4/5
Overall it's a very good album: lyrics and sound. However, I believe there is no great ballad here, to say more, I believe there is no real ballad. There is no Algo Más, no Sueños Rotos, no Niña, no Perdicion but they wanted that. They wanted upbeat songs thinking more about the live concerts and I get it, they already have a stack of ballads they have to sing in concerts for they are well known. No concert can be of ballads only so I understand there point of view.
Also I believe this album takes the Mexican sound too far as I said earlier. I have always loved their mix but this time its too much. That's why I prefer the six songs that sound more traditionally la Quinta Estacion, that are mostly Angel's songs. There are a few experiments that work and I like them, but still I would prefer more songs like Flores... or El mundo...They were looking to innovate, and they did. I just hope next time they stay more on track to what, I believe, its there true sound.
