With 16 million total units in global sales (1999's MTV Unplugged has sold 3 million copies so far), four-time Grammy winners Maná are one of the biggest Latin rock bands around. Revolución de Amor, the four-piece band's first studio album in five years, continues Maná's ongoing dual interest in themes of love and social issues, and the band is masterful at packaging its potent messages in an accessible guitar-based sound. Hailing from Guadalajara, Mexico, Maná create an organic mix of classic rock, modern rock, and traditional Latin music that will appeal to fans of Santana and Rubén Blades (both of whom make guest appearances here). But the band is also able to attract younger audiences thanks to punkier songs such as "Nada Que Perder," which could very easily break through on K-rock radio stations across the U.S. One of Maná's best albums to date, Revolución de Amor is proof positive that Latin rock can be accessible to a broad range of people who don't speak Spanish. --Tad Hendrickson

Album Description

Maná is great!.......2007-05-17

This was the first Maná CD I have ever purchased. I really like it. They blend traditional latin music and great rock guitar work. I will buy more of their recordings.

Más de lo mismo.......2005-10-27

La banda latina más vendedora de discos regresa con un disco prescindible totalmente. Decepciona incluso, pues se esperaba algo diferente al muy bueno "Sueños líquidos", pero suena como a una mala continuación de este, e incluso, queda por debajo. Monótono, lleno de clichés propios del grupo, con pseudo himnos revolucionarios como "Justicia, tierra y libertad" o el típico y repetitivo hit al más puro estilo Maná, como lo es "Ángel de amor". Lo único rescatable del disco son las bellas "Mariposa traicionera" y "Eres mi religión", convirtiéndose esta incluso en uno de los clásicos de toda la discografía del grupo, pues es la única canción en donde la letra tiene rasgos de una muy buena lírica, conjugado con una gran música. Fher suena cansado y Alex, Sergio y Juan, aunque muy talentosos, no explotan su capacidad si continuan haciendo reiteraciones inútiles. Maná debe regenerarse o estará condenada a pasar desapercibido en el panorama de las bandas propositivas. Aunque quizá, el pop que hacen actualmente les resulte mucho más redituable, como de hecho sucede, dejando de lado la música desde hace mucho tiempo, prefiriendo entonces la danza de los millones. Maná está para mucho más que eso.

An advance beyond their past.......2005-08-19

I realize that I'm operating at a disadvantage in reviewing this CD. I don't speak Spanish (although I took it in high school and college) and I haven't followed Maná throughout their career. I'm just an late-arriving Americano who appreciates good music whatever its country of origin.

Nevertheless, I was blown away by this CD's sound: its harmony, arrangement, and emotion. In fact, I was blown away enough to order the 3-CD set of their earlier CDs on Warner, based on Amazon reviewers' raves about their earlier work. I can appreciate where those reviewers were coming from, but I still like "Revolucion de Amor" the best.

For my money, the earlier Maná was a worthy band in the Police vein, but a bit minimalist. This CD, where they arguably went corporate (or whatever), fleshes out their potential and really delivers.

Hey, even with English-language bands, I usually place the lyrics in the background and concentrate on the overall sound. On that count, this CD delivers as much as, say, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers or the Sisters of Mercy or Procol Harum or Phil Spector's girl groups. Solid harmonies, good musicianship, great balance.

That may just be succumbing to the allures of pop production, but good pop is all too rare, ironically enough.

I hope that the band is working on another CD, three years on, and look forward to what they come up with.

mariposa traicionera.......2005-08-07

Just want to say that I don't know much Spanish, but I do tune into Spanish radio stations cos' I love the sound. I think it was around 12/03 that I kept hearing Mariposa Traicionera on the radio. The name of the song was not announced or maybe it was but I just missed it. The song had this hold on me and I just had to find out who the singer was. Searched the internet with just the keyword "mariposa" and after much work, I finally discovered this Mana band. Have bought a few of their albums since, and am still going through the letras with my Spanish Dictionary! Other songs of the band I like are for example, Te llore un rio, Oye mi amor, Como te deseo,Te llevare al cielo, Eres mi religion. Well, I could go on and on...

Metal with a hispanic twist.......2007-04-13

Don't worry, the vocals aren't all in Spanish, but he does throw in some lines here and there, but the effect is actually good. The sound has elements of hispanic music mixed with a traditional nu-metal approach. This album is by far their best, and rocks pretty hard, with screaming and melodic singing. Christian, the singer, has a good voice and sets this band apart from most nu-metal acts. These guys are probably not for everyone, but if you like to try some different sounding metal, you should check them out.

Rip out your eyes and just use your ears!.......2007-01-25

One of the greatest debut's in nu-metal music, `Revolution Revolucion' is 13 tracks of ear-splitting head-banging good fun. Starting off on the right foot with `God Save Us' and ending on the softer note of `With You', Ill Nino perfectly concocted a fantastic studio effort here. Some of the better songs include the opener as well as brutal tracks like `If You Still Hate Me', `Liar' and `No Murder' as well as the rap influenced `I Am Loco' and the popular single `What Comes Around' (which was immortalized when a brilliant remix was released on the `Resident Evil' soundtrack). With heavy Latin influence and pure talent, not to mention a screaming voice that could wake the dead, this band will stand on this album alone. While their albums proceeding this one have left me a bit cold, as in they just aren't what they could have been, Ill Nino still hasn't sacrificed their talent and originality. Sure to make any fan of nu-metal happy, this is an album worthy of plenty of repeat listenings!

Half good, half...not so much.......2006-08-22

I won't go into a song by song review, simply because there isn't enough good material to do so, but tracks 1,3,5,8,10,12 and 13 are all worth a listen. The rest are throwaway. I've enjoyed both of nino's latest records from start to finish, but revolution simply isn't a solid listen.

"The gods want something".......2006-05-30

I'm mainly into metal from the `80s and have very few albums from the `00s, but this CD cover caught my eye in a record store a few months back. It reminded me of the mummified corpses and skeletons on display during Mexico's Day of the Dead. I discovered that Ill Nino is a Latino metal band, so this made sense. I popped it into the listening station and was blown away. There is so much depth and so many styles to their music. At times it is angry death metal with bellowing vocals. At other times it is very melodic and pleasant, almost mainstream. Then they throw in some Spanish lyrics and Latin rhythms. The same tracks can urge the listener to hum and sing along and then cause the pulse to rise and the fists to clench. I'm not a fan of Death Metal or Latin music, but the combination with heavy rock melodies just seems to work. This CD finds its way in my player a lot!

"God Save Us": Has a Korn-like opening with a melodic, sing-along break in between, a beautiful guitar piece, then explodes again.
"If You Still Hate": There is more of a Latino sound here and, during its death metal parts, is even angrier than the opening: "I wish you dead!!!!"
"Unreal": Awesome! Very catchy with great vocals. When the guitar kicks in with the second verse of the chorus, it's a killer ride! Not as much screaming on this one so it's more accessible.
"Nothing's Clear": More Latin sound here (Latin guitar) plus more Spanish lyrics at the bridge. Another of my favorites. More harsh than "Unreal" but has accessible, catchy parts.

"What Comes Around": I love the chorus to this one--"I have nothing to say, but I feel like my mouth is open." Rap-like verse with Latin part as well.
"Liar": Wow, all kinds of stuff going on here. Storming drums with a very catchy part at "You say things would be the same." Harsh, Korn-like at times with angry rap-like verses and even record-scratching.
"Rumba": Another stand-out. Dominated by the quote: "The gods want something."
"Predisposed": another favorite of mine. Not as catchy and memorable but still an accessible song that's not too noisy. I like the calm guitar interlude.

"I Am Loco": Angry, furious lyrics with record-scratching. Harsh yet still melodic. Lots of stuff going on here.
"No Murder": Explodes with perhaps the angriest, heaviest stuff on the album. In contrast, the chorus is very catchy and one of my favorite parts on the CD. It even harmonizes. Both beautiful and ugly to the point of blood-curdling.
"Rip Out Your Eyes": Not as memorable save for the gut-wrenching bellowing of the title.
"Revolution/Revolucion": Now this one is very memorable. The chorus is awesome! My second favorite behind "Unreal." Then exploding with "Revolucion!!!" at the end.
"With You": Latin-flavor love song. All right. Nothing special. They should stick to their "Deathmex" stuff.

You gotta love it.......2005-09-14

Something about this band i mean they are damn good. Great vocals, lyrics and sound and everything else that you need to figure out yourself by buying this album. This is an up and rising band that doesn't get enough credit. This album is really impressive and an easy addition to my hardcore collection.

Canta Corridos de la Revolucion.......2007-07-25

There are no corridos revolucionarios nortenos like the ones in this album and no singer norteno like Antonio Aguilar to sing them. An era ended when he died 19 June 2007.

Wonderful songs by Mexico's finest .......2005-10-17

The genre of Mexican music, corridos from the revolutionary period is best done by Mexico's favorite singer, actor, and cowboy, Antonio Aguilar. This CD is excellent, the sound is revitalized, crisp and clear!

The corrido is also known as folk music and it is the means of telling the story of this historic and cultural war experience from the 1800s, and probably the most famous was Mexico's hero, Francisco (Pancho) Villa. You will hear the stories of other battles, famous soldiers, leaders, political movements and assassinations about Zapata, General Benjamin Argumendo, and more.

One important aspect about corridos is to understand what the story is about. If you don't understand the language, you are missing out on a lot. Search for corridos of the revolution to find the translation of some of the songs and a deeper understanding of the time period.......MzRizz

JUST PLAIN BRILLIANT!.......2004-04-05

Absolutely nothing in the world could've prepared me for this band. They have great vocals, great guitars, an original sound, and a really clever name that fits them just right. When you hear Christian's screams, you may be afraid, but it's a good type of fear. go and get it. it's worth your money. I never regretted buying this CD. ever.

1. God Save Us (10/10): This is the first song i heard from these guys after someone told me about em and it's my 3rd favorite on the album. solid.

2. If You Still Hate Me (10/10) The guitar buildup before the chorus is just awesome. The lyrics are great too.

3. Unreal (9/10) This is the only song that took some getting used to. Now I think it's great.

4. Nothing's Clear (10/10) Great acoustic intro and then it quickly switches back and forth between acoustic, synth, and numetal guitars. Also Christian Machado's vocals are great, switchin off between smooth and screams, English and Spanish.

5. What Comes Around (10/10) My second favorite song on this album. It's fun to play on guitar and the rapping is great. Roger Vasquez plays the tribal drums like a lead instrument and gives the verses it's flavor. The bass stands out a lot too. Also The bridge is awesome.

6. Liar (10/10) The second song I heard from these guys. My friend got the Ozzfest comp and this song was on there. tight song.

7. Rumba (10/10) Now this is music. The intro stands out a lot in this song and the guitar is great. hella fast and great.

8. Predisposed (9/10) Another "intro stands out" song, but it's a little too slow for me. still good though.

9. I Am Loco (10/10) Tied for 1st favorite. It may be slow, but the lyrics are awesome and the guitars are excellent.

10. No Murder (10/10) It took me 2 weeks to get how to play this song (it normally takes me a few minutes) A good message in a heavy song.

11. Rip Out Your Eyes (10/10) The other tie for first. Every time I pick up my guitar I have to play this song. Christian's vocals are just incredible.

12. Revolution/Revolucion (9.5/10) The title song and it kicks a**. but not as much as the others

13. With You (9.5/10)It has a great latin sound in guitar and drums, and great vocals from Christian, but it would've been better if they had a few Spanish vocals.

14. Fallen (4.5/10) Oh, come on. Ill Nino had a good streak going and they ruin it with this: A standard Numetal song with no originality.

15. Eye for an Eye (10/10) They sound awesome live and this Soulfly cover proves it. I can't decide which version's better. I like em both.

16. God Save Us live (10/10) Like I said, they're awesome live and they live up to that reputation with this.

17. What comes Around spanish (10/10) Lucky me, I'm Mexican, so I can understand the lyrics. They're a little different than the English version, but still, it's great.

18. Unreal spanish (10/10) (^see above^)

It also has the videos for What comes around (pretty cool) and Unreal (live) Just get this CD. You won't be sorry.

Awesome.......2004-01-26

This band is awesome, I don't see the Slipknot influences near as greatly as I see Soulfly, but that could just be me. First off, this does get old after a while, and Christian's voice sounds like crap sometimes. Second, With You and What Comes Around both suck, What Comes Around is too rap metal. The best songs are Nothing's Clear, Unreal, Fallen, Revolucion/Revolution, and Liar, which I bought it for. The big thing everyone should know: There is very noticeable piano in the spanish version of Unreal that's not in the English one. I for one very much like when metal bands infuse classical instruments, so I am unsure whether I like the English or Spanish one better, as I speak both languages anyways. So, listen to the spanish version, and definitely get the enhanced extra track version, for Eye For An Eye, Fallen and the Spanish Unreal.

Awesome debut from some fellow Jersey boys.......2003-09-23

Ill Nino's debut album is good, but I don't think it's as great as others say it is. I've noticed heavy doses of Slipknot when I've listened to it, maybe it's me, but I've read interviews with members of the band saying how Slipknot is a huge musical influence on them. I do love how they've mixed in latin beats and rhythms; Ill Nino also has sections of their songs in spanish and have also done entire versions of their songs in spanish.

I've actually known about this band for a long time, back when they were El Nino, not Ill Nino. They had a decent cult following going on here in the NY/NJ area for a few years. They were a much harder, heavier band back then; very much involved in the local Hardcore scene. Their singer was a guy named Jorge who was in the bands Full Contact and Merauder. He also did guest vocals on Candiria's third album.

I think everyone back then thought El Nino was destined for greatness, but I don't know if anyone thought they would change singers, change their name and mellow out their sound. El Nino never released anything officially outside of a demo, but I'm sure that's floating around the internet somewhere. They were one sick f#!@ing band . . .

Best of the best.......2003-09-19

This is a benchmark in nu-metal albums & all albums after this should be judged against it & YES it is that good!there isnt one bad song on this album at all,every track is amazing.the new album Confession has a lot to live up too but from what i heard it is amazing as well.if you have'nt heard this album already go out right now and buy it because simple words cant justify how good this album is.

Grade based on stars, 1-5. No songs receive a 5 star. 4 songs get 4 stars, 6 get 3 stars. The rest are lower. Best songs for me are Dia de Los Muertos, Disaster, Musical Pollution and Used to Love Her.

Overall, I would agree that there are better VGS albums. However, this album is still worth buying for the handful of songs that are great. Especially if you are a VGS fan.

In my opinion they're all the same. They're all good.

Steady As She Goes was a much better album in my opinion. All of the Glow Skulls stuff is great, but this one is definately not all the way up to their standards.

The album does have some highlights though. I reccomend "Ghettoblaster," "Addiccion, Tradicion, Revolucion," "Eville," and the Guns 'n' Roses cover "Used to Love Her"

Anyways, if you're new to the Glow Skulls, pick up Firme, Baille de Los Locos, or Steady as She Goes first. If you're not new to the Glow Skulls, I'm assuming that you probably already have this album.

ToG is one amazing band. I really enjoyed listening to their web site samples, but got so much more from listening to the complete tracks cranked over my home system. I was completely blown away by the groovin' rhythms, driving bass lines and RoyZ's silk-smooth virtuosity. And with Gregory's vocals framing this musical masterpiece called Revolucion 13, ToG has produced some superlative music.
