Rodrigo y Gabriela - Rodrigo y Gabriela (2006)

Photobucket

I just recently discovered this album and have been listening to it nonstop since. Rodrigo Sanchez and Gabriela Quintero are two fast-fingered, Dublin-based Mexicans who create a marvelously unique sound with just two acoustic guitars. Being big fans of metal since childhood, the duo create a sound here that is difficult to describe - a smooth hybrid of sometimes world music, rock, metal, Flamenco, Hispano, and Latin influences, their acoustic yet extremely satisfying sound is just so full of fire and passion. I really just can't get enough of this, I'm sure you listeners will be happy with this too.
