Puya, the Latin nu-metal superstars are back with the follow up to their 1999 release "Fundamental". This new album finds the band once more mixing Latin sounds with Rap-core and nu-metal.  It's that Latin spin that separates these guys from the already overcrowed field of rap-core and nu-metal bands. While many of the bands they are competing with for fans are all starting sound alike PUYA offers a little of the same with a nice little twist that helps them stand out from the pack. Sure you get the mindnubbing drop tuned monotonous power-chords but it's balanced against some intricate Latin styling.  If you liked "Fundamental" chances are good, you'll like this CD as well. If you are looking for PUYA to breakout of the mold, you might be disappointed. But overall, these guys stand a notch above their contemporaries. If you're a nu-metal/rap core fan looking for something familiar yet a little different check these guys out.
