After hearing some Wolfgang songs a few times, I decided to go out on a limb and buy this album to see if I'd like it. Basti is an amazing singer, he can hit high and low notes and go from one to the other with incredible precision. Manuel Legarda is, in my opinion, one of the greatest filipino guitarist ever. I can't tell you how good the guitar on this CD sounds. Mon and Wolf excels on bass and drums respectively. And unlike a lot of new rock and metal, you can actually HEAR the bass throughout most of the songs very clearly- which is a good thing, since the bass is just as fast and pounding as the guitar. You've got everything you'd ever want-great singing, incredible guitar playing, fast drums, and a groovy bass. My favourite tracks are "Mata ng Diyos," "Weightless," "Semenelin" and "Center of the Sun."
This second album was more of a statement. A lot of people thought that the first album was of pure luck and that they were riding the 'mestizo' effect and all those things that come with the territory. So, the Semenelin album was their way of saying, **** you all! There's no [gooey brown stuff] in what they're doing. Semenelin showed everyone that they're serious musicians.
I love everything about it. The songs never get boring. If it was stolen, I would buy it again that day.
Rating:5/5
