Trail of souls

"The performances are uniformly high quality-Qvenild's synth and piano parts are subtle, Sletahjell's vocals are heartfelt and understated, Reiersrud's acoustic guitar is lyrical and flowing. However, the decision to take every song at a very slow pace, coupled with the songs' tales of sadness and failure, results in an overall effect that's more depressing than elating. Although Shakespeare's suggestion that "If music be the food of love, play on" is quoted on the album sleeve, there's little love in these lyrics-most of these songs paint a picture of a far from loving world".

"Norwegian star Solveig Slettahjell, a vocalist with an uncanny gift for singing in a luminous whisper, began shifting from moody Nordic music toward an earthier American sound five years ago, and this session, which blues guitarist and harmonica player Knut Reiersrud guests on, retains that atmosphere".
