With an increasing incorporation of programming into their sound, what do these Argentine super-rockers sound like UNPLUGGED? Well, the group does bend the rules a bit with some keyboards and electric guitar. But the set certainly has the intimate, sedate quality that often accompanies the MTV-sponsored show. True to its subtitle, this recording is "Flying Music," drawing on the band's more expansive, intoxicating material from the '90s.
"Te Para 3" ("Tea for Three") stands out for its bittersweet, bluesy guitar and organ, lilting string passages, and Cerati's lovely, mournful warble. The punky Andrea Echeverri of Aterciopelados does a guest duet with Cerati on "En La Ciudad De La Furia," a dreamy picture of nocturnal urban air travel. "Angel Electrico" has a grittier edge, with Cerati offering some piercing guitar riffs, while "Sonoman" is a hard-rocking, bleep-and-bloop electronica interlude.
