ALQUILBENCIL

Alquilbencil is a Spanish band which I believe disbanded long time ago. They left behind two good albums. This is their debut album.

Their music is both instrumental and eclectic. That is eclectic as in all over the place & difficult to pinpoint. It is somewhere in the crossroad between Post Rock, Eclectic, Fusion, Space rock, Folk and Heavy Prog. With folk, I mean there is a lot of Spanish rhythms and passion. In short, this album takes the listener on a very lively ride with a lot of hills and valleys. Lively and passionate is the best labels I can put on the music too which goes from pastoral to full sound cascades throughout the album. Some, actually most of the music is also somber and mellow. The sound quality is also great too and really conveys the essence of this music.

The quality of the music is very good throughout. My only gripe is the lack of any really great tracks here. But this is still a very good album which I believe Post Rock fans in particular will love. Gosh, this band almost deserve a move over to that category.

I am very strict on my stars so three have to do. But I can see other reviewers find a new best friend in this album and it give full marks so check it out. This album will remain on my playlist for the next decades too.

3.5 stars
