    Throughout, this is the sound of three world-class talents raising their respective games, as if trying to keep up with each other, creating something far greater even than the sum of their world-class parts.

    Enlightened and challenging... an incredible String Band for a brave new world. [Mar 2016, p.99]

    It isn't easy to pigeonhole, but it could just be one of the albums of the year. [Feb 2016, p.84]

    Bravely original and worth checking out.

    It makes for a beguiling, snuggling sort of a record, easy to float away to at times, wild and cinematic at others, but always with a warm and unconstructed feel.

    Although occasionally lacking focus (unsurprising, since large chunks were apparently improvised) it is a quietly mesmerising piece of work that breathes new life into Yorkston’s career.

    The mood is mostly contemplative, with Khan embellishing songs like the wistful title track with sinuous cello-like parts, while he gets his own devotional outings (Knochentanz, Sufi Song), where Yorkston “just did my best to keep up”.

    Unforced and rewarding. [Feb 2016, p.119]
