The thin man

Yesterday I bought Hellville DeLuxe, the latest Enrique Bunbury's album. It was released in Septembre 2008.

I heard its first 2 singles before buying this disc:
El hombre delgado que no flaqueará jamás
Hay muy poca gente

By listening both singles I thought this disc will be plenty of new rythms or at least different rythms that Bunbury didn't use in his previous discs, but it was not the case. The singles are not the complete picture of the LP itself, it also includes Bunbury's own style that have created in his previous works, so that you will hear songs slow songs.

Sincerely Bunbury is not one of my favorite artists but he has 2 of my top 25 songs (lady blue, el rescate), so that this time I give him another opportunity but unfortunately I have to still saying that I'm not a fan.

The songs are quiet and have a characteristic rythm, additionally the voice is the well-know-voice from Heroes del Silencio, you will not hear any surprise or a new way to perform a song.

There is not much to say about this disc, if you are a Bunbury's fan then you will like this disc, if you are not, maybe you should hear its songs before buying this disc, because its style is a little bit hard to like. On the other hand, if you buy this disc you'll be able to get access to additional material by accessing a web site and using your original CD, the additional material includes videos, posters and an interview.

Below you'll find a video from youtube and a link to iLike where you can watch and listen a part of Hellville DeLuxe.
