Argentinian eccentric Fito Páez loves to keep listeners off balance, and the art rocker once again mischievously smashes up genres on *La Ciudad Liberada*. You find yourself dizzily and delightfully careening between stomping, psychedelic sing-alongs (\"Bohemia Internacional\"), galloping disco flecked with glam pianos (\"El Ataque de los Gorilas\"), quirky electro-pop that blossoms into aching balladry (\"Soltá\"), and the slickest homages to \'80s synth-rock (\"Tu Vida Mi Vida\"). And his rightly acclaimed lyrics still drip with acid-tongued wit, juggle sharp politics with surrealist poetry, and surprise via their vulnerability.
