Un disco demasiado sofisticado para ser o suficientemente mamarracho e demasiado mamarracho para ser o suficientemente sofisticado. Nin arre nin xo, nin moito nin pouco.
As ideas interesantes -que non son poucas- quedan enterradas nunha duración excesiva e nun remexido de experimentos que, para o meu gusto, pecan de pretenciosos e me distancian bastante do que si me atrae.
