Reik Album: “Reik”

Well, lots of negative comments have appeared saying that this group is "the same" as other bands like Sin Bandera, but Reik is much more than a romantic duet.First of all, they have new fusions, an innovative singing style, theyr own personality and after all have great and pretty songs and melodies. Another rock-pop band, but with talent and awesome lyrics written by themselves. They definitely have much to offer, as examples the first singles show a new cool vibe among the fake rock or the cheesy pop that surrond.Therefore to listen the cd is a blast, not another teeny booper band!

Hailing from Mexicali, Mexico, a god-forgotten bordertown which also happens to be the state capital of Baja Norte, Reik has been systematically kicking asses and taking namez.

Don't listen to all the haterz here spilling their venom. Their just jealous of these 3 kids (and their producer's, also a Mexicalian) success.

Bueno que puedo decir, este es una muy buena produccion de un trio que promete mucho. Los escuche por primera vez en Mexico durante el verano. Al principio no me gustaba pero solo falta escuchar la poesia de estos chavos. La verdad cantan del corazon y para el corazon. Hay unas rolas muy memorables como amor primero, que vida la mia, yo quisiera y noviembre sin ti. Esto es musica buena la verdad. La gente que piensa que reik son unos "fresas" no saben que para saber de la musica uno tiene que ser diverso. No todo es puro rock o el rap, tambien se tiene que tener un CD dedicado al amor--y por que no empezar con ReiK?

When I first listened to Reik, I was hooked. They have a great sound! "Que Vida la Mia" is awesome!!!! The songs are NOT the same, regardless of what anyone says. Each song is unique in its own way with great vocals and music. There are upbeat songs and slower songs too. All are great!

I discovered this band while watching the Mexican 52MX channel on cable. I have to agree with an earlier reviewer who thought the lead singer had a great voice for pop- he truly is talented. The level of production is high and perfectly suited to this genre of pop/rock. I think this album stands with the best boy-band sounds currently out, regardless of language. These guys have a great, cheerful sound that sounds professional, somewhat acoustic, and really hits the spot. The voice track is not overwhelmed by the music. Excellent purchase if you are interested in and like great standard pop en español.
