I regard this album as one tremendous JLFL masterpiece: "La Paciencia de Job" is a catalogue of spectral textures and ethereal ambiences, all of them craftily delivered through splendid instrumental settings.
The album's overall vibe stands somewhere between the mysterious elaborations of "Al Filo" and the colorful weirdness of "Sol Central", but clearly leaning more toward the former. The use of Precolombine, North African and Eastern percussions and woodwinds helps to build up nameless sonorities through the keyboard layers, guitar adornments and console adjustments helps to build up exotic sonorities - this repertoire stand on the boundaries of wake and sleep, like something partially surreal that makes its way into the grey margins of reality.
"La Paciencia de Job" is a jewel ready to be appreciated by true avant-garde music lovers.
