The very first moments of Rodrigo y Gabriela`s sophomore effort, 11:11, hit the listener cold in the face, and not just because of the amazing guitar playing. Sure, it`s there, but it`s what anyone who heard the duo`s astonishing debut would expect. No, it`s the sound of the record: immediate, forceful, crystalline; it`s in-your-face compelling and impossible to ignore. 11:11 features 11 new compositions, dedicated to 11 musical artists (not all guitarists, either) who have had an influence on the duo. Recorded in Ixtapa, Mexico, the set was self-produced with the exception of two cuts, which were co-produced with John Leckie. Throughout, Rodrigo y Gabriela showcase their metal chops as part and parcel of their Mexican guitar heritage. They`ve not simply melded the two, but have created an entirely different form of music for the acoustic guitar in the process. It`s infectious and accessible, full of pathos, intensity, passion, and color.
