"This version of the band makes a glorious and very varied noise, adding the excellent Nuala Kennedy as guest on a couple of tracks, singing and playing low whistle. While there's a Danish base to much of the music (...), it casts its net wide, from Ireland to Africa, Eastern Europe, and even a touch of samba on "Spirende Kærlighed Til Korn". There are some surprises, like the forward role of the bass guitar on a couple of pieces that brings it close to prog/jazz territory, whilst elsewhere they come on like a powerhouse Nordic folk band ("Konvulsions Låt", for instance) then send feet tapping and couples roaring round the floor on "Reel From Ærø"".
