"Individually and collectively, the quintet is superb. Henriksen and Seim play brilliantly off the voice and each other, while the group catches a variety of moods persuasively; they can groove with understated power on Den lille floyten ('The Little Flute'), catch the other-worldly atmosphere of Treet som vekser opp-ned ('The Tree That Grows Upside Down'), and celebrate rural over urban life in Sus i myrull ('Whispers in the Cotton Grass'). On a near-faultless album, perhaps the most gripping of all are Langt innpa skoga ('Deep in the Forest') and Har du lyttet til elvene om natta? ('Have You Listened to the Rivers in the Night?'), which compellingly unite the visceral and mystic elements of Borli's poetry. But there are jewels everywhere on this arresting example of ego-free music-making. One of the best albums of this or any other year."—Irish Times
