"Musikalsk har Anneli Drecker fjerrnet seg mye fra sine to første soloplater og tida i Bel Canto - som for øvrig gjenoppstår til en konsert på Øyafestivalen i august.« Revelation For Personal Use »Anneli DreckerNordnorsk lyrikk blir arktisk pop. Dansbar elektronika er byttet ut med strykere (NOSOs Kammerorkester er særdeles viktige bidragsystere her) og stemningsfull musikk med hvite vidder i synsranden ...".

"Her ethereal vocal has, quite rightly, been compared to Kate Bush and the Cocteau Twins' Liz Fraser. Anneli Drecker belongs in such exalted company and can more than hold her own. While Kate Bush represents music's past, Anneli Drecker represents music's future.That might seem strange given Anneli Drecker has been around since 1987. Despite that, Revelation For Personal Use is only Anneli Drecker's fourth solo album. This is a new chapter in the Anneli Drecker story. Revelation For Personal Use is the finest album of Anneli Drecker's solo career, and surpasses the quality of 2015s Rocks and Straws. That was never going to be easy. Rocks and Straws had set the bar high for future albums. Two years later, and the Queen of Arctic Electronica, Anneli Drecker, returns with her musical Magnus Opus, Revelation For Personal Use, which features music that ranges from memorable and melodic, to anthemic to heartbreakingly beautiful".
