[edit] Album information

During the summer of 2008 the release of the fourth studio album was set to be released around October. Throughout the end of 2008, rumors were going around that the then three members of La Quinta Estación would break up. The group's vocalist Natalia Jiménez denyed the rumors though. On December the release of the CD was confirmed for a March 2009 release along with the confirmation that Pablo Domínguez (guitar and bass), a long time member would leave the group to join a completely new group named Siete Horas. The news didn't stop the remaining two members to work on Sin Frenos and released their first single as a duo and first single from their new CD, Que te Quería on January 5, 2009. They later released very effect full music video on January 21.[2] Natalia Jiménez has mentioned that their new CD will be a little different still retaining their Pop/Rock style, but having half the tracks be more rockish and less gloomy and the other half a more Latin Mexican sound. The duo have said that the CD will contain 12 songs, half from Ángel Reyero (guitar)and half from Natalia Jiménez. Four songs; Que Te Quería, Mis Labios Por Tus Piernas, Esta Noche No, and Sin Salida have been produced by Tom Lord Alge. The CD will also contain a duet with Marc Anthony called Recuérdame.[3] iTunes will release an extra track for those who pre-order the CD. The extra song is the song Es Cierto, but as a mariachi. The album received a 2009 Latin Grammy nomination for Best Pop Album by a Duo/Group with Vocals.
