Album Description
Amar es Combatir, Mana's 9th studio album and first in four years, was produced by Mana with the special collaboration of recording engineer Tom Russo (Audioslave, Macy Gray, Michael Jackson, Eric Clapton). Also includes a duet with JLGuerra.

It's finally happened. After years of puzzling popularity by way of derivative rock retreads, Mana has finally made the leap to full-bodied musical force on its first album in four years, Amar Es Combatir. The disc is a thoughtful, tender and often terrific collection of pop wizardry. It's buoyed by solid production work, a cohesive sound and singer Fher Olvera's commanding vocal presence. Mana has always drawn inspiration from the arena-rock vibes of everyone from U2 to Journey, but this time, the group takes those blueprints and creates its own urgent framework. It's a thrilling, insanely catchy collection. Everything on the disc crackles with energy, from winsome opener "Manda Un Senal" to swaggering closing track "Relax." In between, the Mexico-based outfit weaves memorable stories of love that are marked by pulsing percussion, driving guitar riffs and emotive vocals. First-rate stuff from a group who finally--at least to these ears--justifies all the fuss. --Joey Guerra

 DE COMO LAS CANCIONES DE AMOR MADURAN Y YA NO EMPALAGAN..DUELEN!! May 22, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
GRAN OBRA DE ESTE GRUPO, QUE PARTICULARMENTE NUNCA ME ATRAJO DEMASIADO..PERO MUCHAS DE LAS CANCIONES AQUI PRESENTADAS DEMUESTRAN LA MADUREZ DEL GRUPO TANTO MUSICAL COMO LITERALMENTE..OBVIO..HAY EXCEPCIONES (AY..TIBURON, TIBURON..), PERO EN CONJUNTO NO LOGRAN EMPANAR UN BELLO TRABAJO DONDE LA MIEL DE OTRORA DEJA GUSTO A MUJER EN LA BOCA.....
 An Absolute Pleasure April 9, 2008
Ojala Pudiera Borrarte makes my heart light up every time I here it. I haven't a clue what it's about, but it is simply a beautiful, almost spiritual song for me. I know some reviewers criticize Mana for not breaking any new ground with this album, I disagree. This is their most well rounded album yet. It highlights how versatile these fine writers and musicians really are. Every song was impeccably recorded and yet not so overly processed that I grew tired of it. This is not always true these days.
Labios Compartidos and Somos Mar y Arena round out my three favorite songs. This CD has spent a lot of time in car - excellent driving music. Needless to say I highly recommend Amar Es Combatir whole heartedly!
Mana ROCKS! February 3, 2008
El mejor de Rock Latina!
I saw these guys first on Univision, and really dug the song "Labios Compartidos", after which I purchased this disk and several others (which I also recommend: Revolucion de Amor, MTV Unplugged, Mana en vivo, Suenos Liquidos - all EXCELLENT recordings).
Then, I went and saw them on this tour at the Mohegan Sun Casino.
Awesome live show, too!
They have since become my favorite among other alt-latina bands like Catupecu Macchu de Argentina, Soda Stereo, Cafe Tacuba, Julieta Venegas and other great acts.
Mana is the BEST of them all.
Great rock music, influenced by U2, the Police, the Stones.
Beautiful lyrics (para quien habla espanol, para el menos), tasty guitar licks, a broad variety of music styles, from straight out rock, to alternative stylings, and music influenced by traditional Mexican styles.
Great stuff!
Escuchalo ahora!
CONSTANT TALENT January 30, 2008
I have been a fan of Mana since the first album they released, I have seen them in concert in US and in Mexico. This is a great band and yes all of their music sounds similar or the same at times, however, they continue to put out great songs with great messages, I have all of their CD's and Amazon is great in the having the availability to buy their music on line. All of their songs are great and if you are a fan of Spanish Rock you will enjoy all of their music.
Hermoso, absolutely beautiful October 5, 2007
Beauty is in the ear of the beholder when it comes to music. This album is beautiful, thought-provoking, and romantic. "Bendita la luz"...ah, how soothing and tranquilizing to listen to this song after a long day at work and a long sit in traffic in the Washington DC area. I recommend this CD for long trips, background music when friends come over, and most of all, as a reward after a long day at work and a long sit in traffic. Vale la pena, amigos, GET THE CD!!! You deserve to listen to something worthwhile, right?
