    First, she is probably the only latin artist that is daring to make something different and unique. The rocky influence is clear but this album is twisted, wild, exotic, and in some parts revolutionary and full of life. Not to mention she is the first latin woman who is playing at the Glastonbury.

    She is a unique artist, her voice is unique and her music also, Wed 21 is a great album a great return and a great achievement for the Argentinian music, artistic representations and folktronica is her strong,and after 5 years she continues giving us this incredible sound that makes her original.

    Juana Molina has been for a couple of years now my source of introspection in a very wide soundscape. Wed 21 just reaffirms my thoughts on her music: She returns after a five-year self exile, blending her unique palette of sounds with explicit lyrics and a very persuasive approach to rhythm that turns out to be a high mark in songs like "Wed 21" and the closing "Final Feliz".

Nothing far from that awesome mixture of sound and confession in "Sin Guía, No", where she expresses a profound desire for freedom, escaping from the concrete jungle to a very humble and green landscape. Hopefully, this one will be a work that I will consume for years while Juana takes another break and goes back in her homeland to sew a few socks and construct some awesome tunes for a new record.… Expand

    Exquisiteness, originality, bravery, craziness: just some adjectives that may describe this incredible artist that never fears to show what she really wants to show, in the way she really wants to. This music is really unique, really expressive, really twisted... and literally, magnificent. I'm so proud of her achievements, and I'm glad that she's representing our country (Argentina) inExquisiteness, originality, bravery, craziness: just some adjectives that may describe this incredible artist that never fears to show what she really wants to show, in the way she really wants to.

I'm so proud of her achievements, and I'm glad that she's representing our country (Argentina) in such a fantastic way.
    If all her previous works were just steps she constructed to create her own thrown, Wed 21 serves just as her own crown. She is a queen.    … Expand

    Overall, from the Hail To The Thief-like guitar line and giddy chorus of Ferocisimo to the undeniable Eras, Wed 21 is an album that might not change any lives but is full of surprises nonetheless.

    Juana Molina once again proves her ability to gently beguile with a warmth and ingenuity that reaches way past language and genre boundaries. [Dec 2013, p.87]

    Wed 21 is a great place to enter Molina's world, but doesn't tell fans anything they don't already know. [Dec 2013, p.110]
