4 stars Don't be fooled by this funny multicoloured cover design ( which is looking as bad imitation of modern art from early 20-s, produced by computer courses trainee). Those Norwegians can play real music, and this music smokes!

Heavily based on vintage keyboard sounds (Rhodes and Hammond), their music has same energy as Deep Purple golden recordings. Just imagine Deep Purple without Blackmore (let's say he's gone to visit baby Candy Knights), with Lord attacking listeners with slightly jazzy passages. Here we are.

For sure, drumming is different, and there even is some guitar on this recording, but I believe you got the idea. All compositions are quite different and sound as fresh air in quite boring atmosphere of late 00-s.

Need I tell you more, or just go and listen it?
