For many "The Ketchup Song (Aereje)" will provide that special audio souvenir of the summer 2002, bringing back memories of some wasted night in a dodgy nightclub. In an acknowledgement that songs sang in Spanish are unlikely to appeal to your average Brit, four out of Hijas Del Tomate's eleven tracks are variations of the reassuringly familiar "Ketchup Song (Asereje)". Even "Kusha Las Payas" the second track on the album charts familiar territory, sounding like a … mehrslower version of the global smash. The rest of the tracks although having a catchy edge, are unlikely to challenge the viewpoint that Las Ketchup are anything more than gabbling Spaniards, who like to shout in unison rather than sing. Regardless of its unfortunate title "Krarpuelo" is actually quite good, a hint of what the Gipsy Kings would have sounded like if they'd had three female vocalists. Starting off with Michelle Branch-style rock chick pretensions, "Me Persigue Un Chulo" seemingly descends into what sounds like a rumba version of Madness's "Baggy Trousers". --John Galilee weniger
