The album climbed the charts on national radios, it was considered one of the best of the year and the band was also reviewed as one of the best live acts.
As to the second album, they decided to take matter into their own hands and gather some of the instruments they had met along the way. The result was a beautifully textured album with detailed arrangements. Like the Wolf is a return to the concept album format. The record has two mesmerizing duets with Arizonas Becky Lee Walters and Joao Rui. Like The Wolf was considered by the European media as an irresistible, a compulsory and an addictive album.

With the first edition sold out in less than two months and highlighted on the lists of best albums of 2011, they managed to create an historic gathering of both the national radios of Portugal and Spain (Antena 3 and Radio 3) around their music.
