This is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players.

Dredg is one of those rare bands who truly cannot be categorized. Gavin Hayes' vocals cascade like a waterfall over a sea of scratching Latin rhythms, dulcimers, guitars in odd time signatures, and prog rock-inspired drums. Hayes shares his penchant for Bulgarian chants in "Triangle" and "Same Ol' Road." "Whoa Is Me" could provide the soundtrack to all things haunted. Whether it's a piano and strings or Cure-influenced (specifically the Cure's "Fascination Street") guitars, instruments fill the time between songs on El Cielo. They offer a respite from the monotony and the slow-fast-slow style of songwriting. In an odd moment at the end of "Whoa Is Me," a soft-spoken public radio DJ speaks of a jazz number from 1944. The full-throttle rocker "It Only Took a Day" is one of the highlights. El Cielo is unlikely to become a hit on commercial radio, but perhaps Dredg could find their niche on college stations. ~ Christina Fuoco

5 stars Sorprendente
Absolutamente brillante, no hay palabras suficientes para describir este album, mucho menos para halagar el talento del grupo tanto en este como en su anterior trabajo leitmotif. Increible y altamente recomendado para fans de grupos como tool.

5 stars Amazing
I've had there 1st cd for a long time now, and i couldnt wait for this one to finally come out. It sounds a little bit different, but i am completely in love with it. However, i must warn you, its not music for all, if your into radio music and pop music, than this isnt for you, you have to be open minded and appreciate GOOD music if you will like this band

5 stars Brilliant!
Dredg secluded themselves in Palm Desert to write El Cielo, which is a concept album and focuses on the subject of sleep paralysis. If you like intellegent, experimental music that strays from the norm, buy this album. It has effected me immensley as a musician. It will always be the most treasured in my collection.
