Free Music Notes for Guapa (W/Dvd) (Dig)
Free Music Review: Fantastic
Hit: 5 Stars
Their best album yet. Nearly every song is instantly catchy, has lush orchestration, and could be a top ten single. Straightforward pop music has fallen out of fashion in the U.S. in favor of hip-hop and Dave Matthews derivatives. I highly recommend this album to any non-Spanish-speakers who miss pop-- La Oreja shows that it is alive and kicking elsewhere in the world. It is worth the extra couple of bucks to get the DVD extra, but only if you are already a big fan. The DVD is not by any means exciting, but it gives a very intimate and touching look at how LOVG albums are made and, thankfully for those of us who can't make out the Spanish lisp at all, is subtitled in English. The first feature is a "The Making of...", which is a videocamera documentary (it's really just clips, no narrative or anything) of the band holed up at their getaway to record the album. The second is band members talking about what each of the songs are about (Vuelve is about a mother who leaves her daughter to go work abroad-- don't the lyrics make a lot more sense to you now that you know?). The last is a group interview where they each say a little bit about the album.
Guapa (W/Dvd) (Dig) Poster
OREJA DE VAN GOGH LA GUAPA (CD+DVD) - SPECIAL VERSIONEffortless effervescence--that's the most fitting phrase to describe Guapa, the fourth studio disc from La Oreja de Van Gogh and follow-up to 2003's wildly popular Lo Que Te Conte Mientras Te Hacias La Dormida. Rock riffs, club beats, and instantly catchy melodies collide with the kewpie-doll vocals of Amaia Montero. Her voice is thin and wispy, to be sure, but it's a perfect fit for LODVG's pleasing pop confections. "Noche" and "Muneca de Trapo" are anchored by fuzzy guitar riffs, while "Vuelve" rides a Nirvana-inspired guitar groove, accented with electro beats. "A Diez Centimetros De Ti" pulses with the passion of young love, and "Mi Vida Sin Ti" morphs from a plaintive guitar ode into a delicious disco-ball ditty before shifting into a barroom sing-along, complete with blaring mariachi horns. There's lots of ground covered here, but LODVG's route never seems forced or overplanned. Guapa is simply the sound of a group comfortable with its talents and its varied inspirations. For fans of swirling world-pop, that's pretty inspired too. --Joey Guerra
