Description/Reviews: 

A conceptual work, a trip through the life of the protagonist Jacob, a young man with cerebral palsy who with the help of a doctor eventually surpasses, reaching success and glory, but will end suffering an identity crisis that will turn his life into a nightmare. "Rotta" is an album of difficult classification in which Alhandal approach a variety of topics full of nuances and textures, creating an album full of feelings and emotions, and with great technical quality they  move nimbly between such styles as progressive rock, typical Andalusian rock, heavy metal, electronic databases, and even with a distinct pop flavour in some songs, all running perfectly framed within the story and the concept of "Rotta".
