Sakre's sole album is a conceptual one with both sides presenting as multi-movement suites, with each part incremented clearly, but melding into each other, Starting on the mega short but super folk Errenberrentzia, the album quickly reaches its cruising speed on a loud guitar (tearing us away from the piccolo of the fist movement) in Orain, imposing a very loud hard rock, that reminds of some Status Quo. After such extreme, one really wonders where the album is heading, but with Oroitzapenak (souvenirs), it is taking its final shape: a symphonic rock that draws more on the French School than on the Italo-Spanish school. Indeed you can hear some Pulsar or Carpe Diem, with calm synth lines underlining the good pedestrian bass, an inventive drum style and this again loud guitar. When the synths are not used Aramburu gets his growling organ in swing in Ezengaino (Disillusions). The side- closing Bakardadea (Solitude) starts slowly on electric guitar arpeggios, before Aranburu's electric piano takes over, slowly leading us to unison chants and a gradual build-up with bass first then finally drums enter. Once the whole group gets going Aramburu switches to his ARP synth, while guitarist Mezquita pulls a superb lengthy solo. This 7-mins+ track is one of two highlights on this side of the album, with Oroitzapenak, ending this first almost 20-mins suite in a superb manner.
