3 stars With this album the band tried to attract some international attention, as KIM FOWLEY arrived from England to do the production. Maybe this lowers it's value in my ears, as I liked WIGWAM's debut album's rawness and the wildness of their ideas. This album has much more commercial sound in it, and the added "crazy parts" (excerpts from Kureniemi's electronic music) seem quite artsy. There are still good tracks on this album, like PEKKA POHJOLA's violin driven "1936 Lost in the Snow". "Wishful Thinker" is also beautiful song, but it sounds like a direct plagiarism of THE BAND's "Unfaitful Servant".
