    Hall Music's opener and closer offer the disc's finest moments, but, aside from a couple stumbles, the disc maintains a strong sense of sound throughout.

    The result is a seductively melancholy and unashamedly serious album that claws insistently at the heartstrings. [Nov 2011, p.91]

    Indeed, while the album is quite pretty and powerful at times, the overall mood of glacial gloom can be suffocating.

    With Hall Music, Svanangen has proven he can compose big arrangements, but he might not write big music.
