maybe you Spanish speaking folks appreciate this album.
I listened to it, because I like her (Amaya's, aka Maud the Moth) voice, and I saw her live with her other band Healthy Living last month at that festival.
But I don't understand a word of Spanish and have no clue who that painter is.
So I went back to listening to the older Bell Witch albums and liked that more

im rarely into "words" music (hence im not an opera fan). this one doesn't do it for me but then again same thing with la bohème, so i don't blame anyone.
anyway the painter was a refugee of the spanish civil war who had a shitty life but became a surrealist painter in mexico. this is a kind of opera about her? at least that seems to be the theme of the thing, making it eventually after great hardship.
mexico took in a lot of spanish civil war refugees. it was a big deal, historically.
