The second album from this band from Mexico.
The band was a quartet with a lineup of drums, percussion, bass, guitars, keyboards and vocals.
The band returned again after a five years long break from the studio.
Their 2012 debut album Luz Interna was a pretty good psych rock album as you can read from my review of this album earlier this year/month.
The music is again psych rock. Slow to mid-tempo psych rock, that is.
The final Pink Floyd albums comes to mind here. Ekos has just stripped down the music and their music does not have as many instruments as on a fully blown Pink Floyd song/album.
Ekos also brings us male Spanish vocals too.
As mentioned above, the music on this fifty minutes long album is pretty slow. It is also complex too. It is also at times pretty epic too. In particular at the end after the slow start of the album.
The music starts slow and very ambient like. Then it grows in intensity throughout the album before it really get into full bloom at the end. That is a pretty neat way of mixing and mastering an album.
The band has yet to full master the art of song writing. Nevertheless, this album really grows on the listener and it is indeed a good album. It is also a rewarding listening too.
