"I first heard this album playing in the background at a bar in Córdoba, southern Spain and instantly fell in love with it. It has an interesting blend of flamenco style vocals and piano and I never get tired of listening to it, which, to me, is a mark of a truly great album." Reply

"The title track and "Arc of Bar" are great, but the rest seems to be really lacking creativity. It feels like stuff I've heard before from 4 King & Country, and even they aren't the most innovative band around.

"It's a good album - the first 2-3 tracks are excellent but falls into a comfort zone from there on that it never really recovers from... Not their best (IMO) but very much worth it if you already like them." Reply
