Decca Reviewed 2007-02-10 | ||
Live 2-CD recording from the Swedish folk/rock quintet. Combine folk fiddle and electric guitar, sax, drums, add lots of energy, a quirky sense of humor and great musicianship and you’ll get this. It’s rockin, cocky, crazy good. Watch for applause & crowd noise. Also note that because of their accents, every time they say “folk” it sounds like “fuck”. It never is – all FCC friendly. All instrumentals. Many tracks end early so watch out. Folk off! CD 1: *1. Upbeat, driving with some wicked-good playing. Esp sax. *2. Crazy-fast toe-tapping rock/folk. 3. Fluid & jazzy mid/uptempo folk piece. 4. Staggering rock polska. Driving, midtempo, big. *5. Upbeat, fun almost Nordic-ska hurdy-gurdy rock track. 6. Cool mid/upbeat polska w/solid guitar solo. *7. Fast, fast. Slows down, gets going again & becomes a frenzy. 8. Slow & stately at first. Then a warm, relaxed folk/rock sway. 9. Midtempo head-nodder with a sophisticated folk/rock sound. *10. Drivin w/lots of clapping & crowd noise. Upbeat, way cool. CD 2: 1. Sweet, lyrical folk polska. With a hint of sadness & jazz. Pretty. *2. Starts mid, picks up, false stop at 2:15 then a sing along. Fun! *3. A driving folk dance. Starts mid, picks up. Gets rockin. Yow! 4. Fast toe-tapper that turns into a rock anthem. Band gets introduced, then things calm down & pick up again. 1 min of applause at end. 5. Mid/upbeat w/screaming guitar. *6. Bright, toe-tapping & folksy. With cool sax bits adding brass. 7. Tripping melody, midtempo w/a cool energy. Great sax. 8. Sweet, old-fashioned folk sound at first, sax makes it cool. |
