Twin solitude

"Like where the rivers merge, Twin Solitude is a meeting place of two halves - specifically, the album's two distinct sides, which represent two parts of a past relationship. This is where Vollebekk has come to find peace ... Rarely simple, Twin Solitude is a striking display of Leif Vollebekk's talent and heart".

"A couple of hearings are really inadequate to get to grips with this complex, emotive and occasionally morbid album from an astute social observer. That Vollebekk has been compared to Canada's Broken Social Scene is no coincidence. The wordsmith is, though, his own worst enemy at times with unnecessarily fussy lyrics on some of the early songs in particular, frequently indulging in superfluous multiple rhymes like some sort of prototype folk rapper. There is also a degree of similarity between songs to the point that they are in danger of becoming monotonous. There is no bridge or other form of break, instrumental or otherwise, until the last track and a lack of tonal variation. Having said that, this album is one of those that you just know will grow on you with every successive hearing".
