"Up to date the Latino-rock scene was jaded with the likes of Mana, Jaguares/Caifanes,etc( bands typically overplayed). Not since Jumbo has the Latino rock/alternative scene been given a more definite identity in the last couple of years. Their music is reminiscent of the early 90's grunge era stemming from Seattle. Maybe Monterrey, Mexico has something up its sleeve? Whatever the case, Jumbo, along with Zurdok, are two of the current Latino rock/alternative bands that are paving the way in terms of where Latino rock/alternative music will soon be going!"
Jumbo's going up!!!

"Hey, I strongly recommend this CD, it's a great production by BMG, and mixed in Absolute Studio by Leon Zervos, you know, from the Black Crowes, the engineering is also great by Jesus Flores, and it contains high quality alternative/lite rock music, between, Radiohead (Siempre en domingo, Alienados para siempre) , Blur (Siento que..., Automático, Dilata) , Nirvana (Nova, Aqui) or even Stone Temple Pilots (Monotransistor), great band, great label, great production, great deal, great music, a must-have!!!"

"Jumbo is one of the greatest new bands of latin rock, like zurdok, is a band how has power on some songs, but it also have some lite sound on others, is a combination between Oasis and Radio Head. Restaurant is one of the best album of 1999 and will be one of the greatest of all times, on latin rock."
A wonderful band

"Althougth this is their first CD, I've heard it after "D. D. y ponle play' (their most recent recording). I just have to tell you, Jumbo is way ahead from sounds like Mana or Cafe Tacuba. Yes, and definitely, their sound is more Radiohead, but thy are not a rip-off: they do their own thing. Just check it out. Jumbo is worth listening."
