Rodrigo y Gabriela, '11:11' (ATO)
Heady metal shtick gets too dubiously proggy.
By Chuck Eddy 09.01.09 2:07 PM
These Mexico-born, Dublin-based acoustic buskers made their name by flamenco-fying Metallica and Zeppelin songs, and their latest set was mixed by old thrash hand Colin Richardson. So it’s no shock that 11:11’s most affecting moments -- the title track and “Logos” -- come when the duo’s time signatures slither into a stalagmite-strewn prog-metal cave.
