The debut album from this band from Spain.
The band was a one-man-band at that time with Pablo Ursusson doing the percussion, classic guitar, Irish whistle and vocals.
Three guests added violin, guitars and vocals.
This band has released six albums so far, the latest one last year. I got all of them up for reviews this summer.... off course starting with their debut album.
This, their debut album clocks in at forty minutes and contains a mix of instrumental and vocals based folk music from Spain. Galician folk music, that is. Spain's regions is pretty different from each other, culturally and politically. Spain is therefore a kingdom of regions more than a country/land.
The music is melodic but also dense and full of lush music. The music is not progressive at all. Neither is it any modern music based. The music here is based on hundreds of years of sounds, music and traditions.
The music sounds a bit alien to a person who are not from this region. I guess most people, young persons, in this region would regard the music here a bit alien.
The quality is not bad at all. It is a decent enough album and something the band, Pablo, can build on.
