Unbelievable, simply unbelievable. Never before have I heard a band that puts so much effort into every song that they create. Each song on this album is a work of art. The music fits the mood of the lyrics. The lyrics are magical. The album is truly a gem.

I don't speak much Spanish. Almost all that I know I've learned by listening to HDS. I wasn't particularly interested in learning Spanish either. Yet I cannot put down this album. Or any of their other albums either (Avalancha, El Espiritu Del Vino, El Mar No Cesa, Rarezas... and Enrique Bunburry's solo album Radical Sonora.)

It was at the shore of this decade that well known guitarist/producer Phil Manzanera decided to give these four kids from Zaragoza, Spain a shot at the music world. What developed from that coalition was the birth of a legendary Rock & Roll band. With this album (and the follow up -customary- Live version "Senda 91") they quickly broke into the European and Latin markets with songs like "Entre dos tierras" ("Between two lands"), "Oracion" ("Prayer"), "Decadencia" ("Decadence") among other very well written & performed songs including the re-release of "Heroe de Leyenda" ("Hero of Legend") the band's first Hit Single from the premature -and their first- Album "El Mar no Cesa" ("The Sea doesn't cease"). It was a very rithmical demostration of inmense potential that would later place them on a pedestal of what many call 'The greatest Rock & Espanol Band ever'. This is a CD you might as well get now, because if not, after listening to their later work; you eventually will.

hands down, simply the best latin rock album of all time! and don't let any body tell you otherwise,starting of with the classic "entre dos tierras" a dark arrangement of metal sounding guitars,spiked with a long arena rock sounding solo via juan valdivia(guitars),the whole album is incredible, when i first listened to it i couldnt believe there was music out there like this, there is not one filler song on the whole album, it contains lyrics that, make you want to go out and punch a wall,and some that make you want to hug your girl friend, but never loosing that dark feel,simply e.bunbury(vocals,guitars) at his best, along with drummer pedro andreu and bassist joaquin cardiel,this album stands alone.

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.
"Maldito Duende"is a dark ballad ,unsurpassable in its appeal.
"Malas Intenciones"is where Bunbury really shines and his pronunciation of"Más de un segundo en ti"in the track's coda wins the song by itself.
"Senda"is another great track and as powerful as they ever got.
"Oración"brings back their surfacing emotions and send them to a new high.

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.
