Style, Critic Reviews
The album attracted the attention of music critics. Ned Raggett, Allmusic.com website observer, praised the disc positively and praised the diversity of compositions, among which there are both “sullenly dancing” and classical ballad styles, and “clouds of melancholic, echoing textures” [1] .
The reviewer of the Russian magazine Fuzz noted: “When Lauri and Olli Ainala, residents of the town of Savonlinna, play psychedelics, this is reminiscent of the attempts of our beat groups to record their first opuses on tape (sort of BG 1973). But this was done not because of a lack of funds, but because of the principle ” [2] .
