  1. An exceedingly triumphant psych-pop oddity.... I doubt 2004 will birth a more blissful sonic encounter than Ta Det Lugnt.
  2. 91
    A richly rewarding passage through the last five decades of American music history. [Aug 2005, p.99]
  3. 60
    The songs themselves don't amount to much... but they're basically an excuse for Ejstes's gloriously lysergic arrangements anyway. [Sep 2005, p.133]

    I'm kinda jealous. You americans, or wherever you might come from, get to listen to this masterpiece without understanding a word of what Ejste's singing. I'm swedish and I would really love to hear the record with "foreign ears" so I can catch the whole expercience, if you know what i mean... Don't get me wrong now, the lyrics are great. Probably just as wierd as you hope them to be. Expand

    One hook x 4 per song, except this time, in eskimo. also, it dies halfway through, before it really get its flippers. like a baby seal! "arf-arf?" ---->dead. "arrrr....". Expand
