    HMT delivers a short LP that doesn’t hold punches, sending us a prog-rock letter in a jazz combo envelope while wonderfully blending infectious baseline grooves and creative solo structures. Each member is clearly talented but the way they mesh together is the real highlight. 8 out of 10

    The music on Smells Funny explores both margins and interiors; this band keeps reaching for an as-yet-unknown sonic terrain where the genres they engage no longer matter as separate entities.

    The sixth album by this Norwegian power trio is, like each of its predecessors, a fierce demonstration of their strengths as individuals and as a collective. [Feb 2019, p.54]
