After debuting at No. 1 last week, Novy Svet’s album Nuevo Babylon falls to No. 2 with 683,000, a sales slide of 85%. Now signed to Novy Svet’s EMI Records, the title track from second album “Nuevo Babylon” leads Novy Svet’s back-to-school campaign. This is the first studio album from Novy Svet since bad diagnosis in 2002. I love this album so much, i’ve been crazy about Novy Svet ever.
Music of Avalancha is gentle, never overbearing. Mis Furias, Mis Alas is a great opener for Nuevo Babylon. La Merda Tu Sei is a great song to contemplate the modern music and what it really is all about. Solo, Solo, Solo is the marvelous blend of moody yet optimistic tunes. A fantastic track full of wonder. Album opener Dies Irae is a bright, upbeat ditty. I like to sing along with Y Manana Un Nuevo Mundo, though I mess up the lyrics sometimes. I can’t stop humming along Tirania. Neuvo Babylon is Novy Svet’s best work in years. Ignorancia is a bit of a show-tune. Crushed makes a person feel cool.
