Album Notes & Community Reviews

The idiosyncratic Spanish duo Vainica Doble released their fourth album amidst the burgeoning post-Franco cultural explosion. 'El eslab贸n perdido' ('The Missing Link') continues their unique brand of highly literate, slightly surreal folk-pop. The album's sharp, deeply ironic songwriting earned them enduring status as cult heroines among the Movida Madrile帽a generation.
