"If to categorized I guess this should be labelled posthardcore or noisy indie. Think of the more experimental phases of Fugazi or of The Ex to get a general idea. Kinda groovy and dodgy and not for background listening purposes. This might very well be considered art and despite considering myself punk this is not meant to be an insult" Jan - www.yellowisthenewpink.com
"Ensayo Error -el más producido de sus tres discos- es una consagración silenciosa de una de las bandas insignes de nuestra escena. Talentosos y dueños de un estilo propio, dispuestos a seguir aventurándose en sus dominios, los famileares han hecho su álbum más llano sin transar con melodías estandarizadas, dando terreno a la agresividad y la contención en distintos grados. www.super45.cl
"Guys from Familia Miranda played in many bands, but they have something in common: they do it a little bit different than the others. They found themselves comfortable in the noisy, little bit weird and completely un-latin scene although they absorbed its fluidum so originally, that together with their roots, invention and ideas it appeared something very original and interesting" www.freemusic.cz
"El trío vuelve a exponer los elementos que han construido en la banda un referente único e inigualable, nutrido principalmente de corrientes progresivas, guitarras muy pesadas y ruidosas, líricas ocasionales (y frecuentemente abstractas), mucho pasaje instrumental y un alto grado de experimentalización"
Rolling Stone Chile
"Die südamerikanischen spielen hauptsächlich instrumentalen, groovigen Rock mit Chicago-Anleihen, meist aber an Bands wie Don Caballero orientiert, und wenn Gesang dabei, dann irgendwie Shellac, Human Alert oder Uzeda, aber poppiger und komplett in Spanisch" www.flight13.de
