Lu - Lu (CD)

All Music Guide

With a mission to bring a positive message to the youth of their native Mexico, and do so in a super shiny, electropop wrapped package, LU released their 2004 self titled debut album LU. Some measured success on the Latin pop charts is only a shadow of the warm reception they've received among younger audiences.

LU sounds eerily similar to contemporaries, the highly successful Sin Bandera, both in stylistic voice and in their desired niche. The production work is spotless, every tune slick and punchy, each hook more memorable than the previous. Producer Aureo Baqueiro may have something to do with their almost clonelike flavor, having been at the helm of the last 4 Sin Bandera records.
