Excellent Pop Album

"The Process is an excellent pop album, slick, seamless, exquisitely produced, yet still containing the wild energy that characterizes all of Brave Combo's albums and live appearances. The Process is somewhat of a departure for Brave Combo, a band known for its incredible musical range and devotion to a variety of musical styles, including cha-cha, waltz, rhumba, cumbia, salsa, merengue, guaguanco, ska, conjunto, and, of course, polka. Those musical influences are still there, but sublimated. The song, not the style, has finally taken primacy.The Process is further proof that Brave Combo and do anything, and is a good introduction to the fun and crazed world of Brave Combo."
A Departure from Polka

"Brave Combo is best known as a polka band on speed. They caught the main-stream polka world by storm with their first Grammy on their third nominations for Polkasonics. The Process is a departure from polka but thats ok because BC can do it all. Great album from a band that gives a new meaning to alternative. BC is one of the best live bands around today."
