"Put this alongside any great guitar-focused record released this year. Packed with drama and full, lush, reverberating sonics, Hirvonen's Kielo is as strong as any".
"At all stages, it's very much a group record, rather than lead-and-rhythm. Hirvonen's too modest and generous a talent to strut in front of the music rather than serve it from within. If you know New Helsinki and Displace, the two pre-COVID records, this will feel like a big, but understated, step forward".
