Soda's best album is probably Spanish rock's best
It was way ahead of its time and is a rare masterpiece by Latin American's best rock band. This CD released in 1993 still sounds fresh. Secuencia Inicial. . . Primavera 0. . . a must have in any music lover's collection.


Revisited after 15 years...still great
Just put it on my MP3 player, and find myself cranking it up when I need a jolt of inspiration: on the bike, mid-afternoon dolldrums at work, whenever. I bought this disk when it first came out while I was living in Bolivia, and loved it then. I am suprised that other reviews don't emphasize Camaleón as a fantastic song--my favorite of the bunch, though every one has something unique to offer. Cerati et al are quite special, underrated in N. America, and this is their apotheosis, in my view. .


Underrated Excellence
"Dynamo" shows the evolution of a band in top musical form. This is one of Soda's most underappreciated works, but it shouldn't be overlooked.

A Landmark Album From 1992
) in the early 90's. This album, to me, is the pinnacle of the sonic wave, shoegazing or whatever you want to call it, a genre that was pioneered in the 80's by groups like The Jesus & Mary Chain, Sonic Youth & The Pixies and was perfected by a few british bands (My Bloody Valentine, Ride etc. This album was released a year after MVB put out their masterpiece, "Loveless" in 1991. What was always great about Soda Stereo is that they weren't exactly innovators but they made the current sonic trends their very own. By 1992 Soda Stereo were already legends in all of the spanish speaking world, they released their biggest selling album in 1990, "Cancion Animal" but it was also their most commercial album. Gustavo Cerati had been spending some time in England and that's where he discovered the shoegazing bands and also the coming up electronic artists, like The Orb. He rushed with his band to their Supersonico Studio in Buenos Aires and by using all kinds of sonic trickery they created this masterpiece. The album is perfectly sequenced, the first four songs are an experience out of this world, it winds down a little bit at the middle then it gets dancey and it finishes up strong with the hypnotic ballad "Fue". The melody on the album is not provided by guitars which on this case are used to provide feedback and a sonic sheen, keybords and vocals are used here to provide harmonies. Instead of burying the vocals like MVB did on "Loveless", they bring them up front and the lyrics are very discernible, everything is anchored by the best rythm section in the rock in spanish genre, Zeta Bosio and Charly Alberty, provide all kinds of rythms, from standard rock to danceable. The album was received very well by specialized critics, but had a very poor reception from fans, a misunderstanding at the time was that this album was Soda's version of grunge music, but in reality, has nothing to do with it. I went to see them on the tour to support this album, they played in the Monumental Plaza in Monterrey, it was an amazing experience not only because of the album songs, but becuse they reworked some of their classics to fit the sonic wave of the album. this album is a stone cold landmark and is probably the best in the short history of rock in spanish and it rivals the other great international albums of the era. Buy it you won't regret it.


El mejor disco de Soda Stereo
Su estilo fue unico en su epoca y su influencia se siente aun presente en el rock actual de latinoamerica. Depende del gusto de cada quien pero si alguien no cree que este sea el mejor disco, por lo menos debe reconocer que es de los mejores. Unico en su estilo, la musica y las letras de lo mejor que a hecho cerati en su vida.
