GANDHI ROCKS!
J. Lehigh | Portland, OR USA | 04/15/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Hailing from San Jose, Costa Rica, Gandhi, in my opinion, is by far the best rock band in all of Latin America. I had the great privilege of seeing them live in concert my last night in Costa Rica and let me tell you...Gandhi rocks! Like the great Danish rock band Mew, Gandhi is a true live band. They perform with all the feeling and intensity that you could ever hope for in a live show. Bios is their third album, somewhat heavier than their others and every bit as complex and lyrically brilliant. Even though I'm not by any means a fluent Spanish speaker I find myself completely engrossed in their deep and meaningful lyrics. Unlike bands such as Mana who repeatedly overuse the words 'amor' and 'corazon', Gandhi writes about much more interesting subjects than the current fling. Bios is a great cd on its own, but as I mentioned, Gandhi is an amazing live band which makes this cd special as it comes with a bonus cd of one of their concerts, which is basically a live version of their second album Paginas Perdidas, which, incidentally is out of print and practically impossible to find. I also highly recommend their latest disc Ciclos, which is available here at Amazon, and their first disc En el Jardin del Corazon, both of which are every bit as good as Bios, although each have a different feel to them which is another reason why I love this band. If you are looking for Spanish rock with melodic and sweeping vocals, one the best rock guitarists in the world, an incredible drummer who frequently leaves the 4/4 in the dust in favor of time changes that must be heard to appreciate, and a bass player who really knows how to throw down the bottom line, this is the band for you. Buy Bios. You won't be disappointed."
