...JAIVAS release without Eduardo 'Gato' Alquinta who passed away in 2003. Irreparable loss for the band and fans, but life goes on and LOS JAIVAS decided to keep the flame burning Carlos Cabezas, band's collaborator since 1999, singer and multi-instrumentalist, and Gato's kids, Aurora (backing vocals), Ankatu (guitar) and Eloy (sax), completed...

...Jaivas were still able to create a solid album like this one. Inspired on the mysticism of the Elqui Valley, with the poems of Eduardo Parra and the music of all the band, Mamalluca is a trip through the different elements of this magic valley. The music is highly heterogenic, with any song different from another, but always keeping the style...

...JAIVAS album, all band's trademarks are here, though this work takes several spins to get into If 'Alturas de Macchu Picchu' instantly grabs your attention and doesn't release it till the end of the last song, this album is slightly uneven and less accessible. Personally I found some tracks ('El Guillatún', 'Y Arriba Quemando el Sol' and...

...Jaivas are back again after a six years silent period. Their prior work (Si Tú No Estás) being one their weakest ever But this one seems to march in its footsteps, unfortunately.
