Their music takes you to unusual places and does it in a way that is pleasant to the ears, never hurrying things and always keeping a strong (RIOtively-speaking) focus on the melody. I don't understand a word of Swedish but listening to them never fails to make me smile. There is something humorous and warm about their music. The way the instruments interact is tight and imaginative, and odd too, sometimes I'd think they're playing and singing in reverse mode.

 

My best experience was listening to them in a cold Belgian airport at 4 am waiting for a bus that would not come before 8 am. They sure sparkled my night...

 

I would recommend the Explain this Country compilation as it combines their 2 studio albums (both of which are rather short) and the Sju Sovare suite which is at least as worthy of hearing as the studio material.
