Disco de Héroes Del Silencio: “Senderos de Traicion”

This is the best album that I have ever heard. "Heroes del silencio" give us the best of themselves in this album. I like every single song of this work. All of them are perfect. Their lirics give us the chance to meditate about the things of the real life. One song says "... I know that I have always been like this, that I don't have cure, and I don't wanna have it..", another one says "...I am very close to know the craziness..." I think this album is the highest expression of the rock in spanish.

"Senderos de Traición"(Paths of Treason)by the fantastic Heroes del Silencio is a great rock album anywhere in the world.

They here provide a killer combo of all their best qualities:Enrique Bunbury's spellbinding voice is at its best and dovetails neatly with Juan Valdivia's slightly celtic influenced guitar playing creating an unquestionably original sound.

The opener"Entre dos Tierras"is possibly the best track in here with its epic scope and compelling chorus but the record doesn't flag throughout,with the high points coming one after the other.

All in all superb and possibly the best set of songs ever delivered by one of the top bands the movement of spanish sung rock has yet produced.

My friend has sent me a tape with one of their songs - Entre Dos Tierras. I was a fan of this group since the moment I heard the beginning of the tune. It was so REFRESHING and EXCITING. Few months later, I got this album, and I can say that the rest of the material is equally brilliant. I even started studying spanish because of them! Heroes had (I say - had, because unfortunatelly, they split up) everything a great rock'n'roll band should have: passion, power, and originality. Unlike their later albums,there isn't much distortion on this one, but neverthless, it doesn't lack the power and excitement. EVERY song is a gem, but if I had to extract something, it would be Entre Dos Tierras, Maldito Duende and Con Nombre De Guerra. I work as a radio DJ, and I have heard thousands of records, but Senderos De Traicion stands on the top of my all-time-favourites chart.

I just wanted to tell every HDS fan that they are re-joining the year 2003 without Alan.

I dicovered this band back in 1990, and all I can say is I haven't find any other band with the same feeling and dedication as this band. This band is not your average Spanish Rock band because other bands are just filled with mediocrity and no sense of melody.

As a professional guitar player I can tell you that the guitar work in the band is one of the finest and unique sounds that you can get in the whole Rock En Español scene. The lyrics and vocals are profound and obscure; Enrique Bunbury demonstrates his vocal abilities, showing that he's not an ordinary/average singer. You can truly feel the anger and power of the vocalist, and the lyrics clearly demosntrate Bunbury's fury and sense of imagination. Both the music and the lyrics create a very unique atmosphere which leaves me wanting to hear this album over and over again.

If you're looking for pure art expression manifested through music, I really recommend this album along with their other masterpiece "El Espíritu Del Vino".
