Voor de liefhebbers van latin-pop en ballads is dit een aanrader van deze singer-songwriter uit Guatemala, z`n 14e studio album, The album received a Latin Grammy Award nomination for Best Singer-Songwriter Album
Willfully losing yourself while on the road is a common and effective way of dealing with the onset of depression, and while that`s just what Guatemalan singer/songwriter Ricardo Arjona did after the death of his mother, the resulting album Viaje is much more sweet than sour. After "Lo Poco Que Tengo" opens the album as a multiculti ray of sunshine (Arjona`s Guatemalan pop meeting the easy California sway of the `70s), ballads like "Cavernicolas" (wistful) and "Apnea" (heartbreaking) bring on the heavier emotions, although there`s always some hope packed into these moving songs. Little touches from outside genres reflect the album`s theme of travel, and being issued on the singer`s own Metamorfosis label makes it feel all the more intimate. Consider this small and sure effort one of the artist`s most personal albums and approach with an open heart, and maybe a box of tissues.
