Elevation
Our rating, out of 100 — and why.
AI-generated from five scored dimensions. An opinion, not a measurement.
The covers are unified by Porretas’ blunt punk delivery, but the writing belongs to a varied set of earlier songs and the album offers limited reinterpretation.
What we noticed
- All 13 tracks are covers of songs from Spanish rock and popular music, rather than original Porretas material.
- The sequence starts with the city-focused “Pongamos que hablo de Madrid,” then turns to “Necesito un trago”; “Txus” arrives eleventh, so the record saves a familiar punk song for late in the running …
- Porretas recast the songs in a direct punk-rock setup, with distorted guitars and rough-edged vocals keeping the different source material under a common sound.

Little footprint beyond its audience. Reported but not counted — how far a record travelled describes its reception rather than the record, and a newer release has had less time to travel than an older one.
