5 stars What happiness!

Never rock band will have deserved so much its qualification of progressive. Because make no mistake, Beardfish is above all rock. And if it only took one track to prove it, "Harmony" would suffice. From the first notes, romanticism springs from Rikard Sjöblom's accordion, and bewitches us with a ritornello that we begin to whistle for the rest of the day. Then with its alternation of softness and violence "Sunrise" puts us directly in the bath. From "Roulette", the pieces reveal an incredible intensity and the high level of inspiration does not let us go until the last notes, a final taste of very addicting come back. I have literally loved this record for many years! When it comes to interpretation and mixing, the listener that I am is always happy to hear clearly guitar, bass, keyboards, drums and not an indistinguishable magma. It is moreover from "Sleeping In the Traffic P1" that Robert Hansen really imposes his powerful bass playing. Great!

A true masterpiece and one of the best rock records I have ever heard. No doubt.
