CD ReviewsNorway. What a surprise Gal Uchovsky | Tel Aviv, Israel | 03/11/2001 (5 out of 5 stars) "Imagine Norway. A distant fjord. The blue water. The chilling wind. You see a wooden cabin. You open the door and it's not a Sauna.... It's a wonderful CD playing in "repeat". Kings of convenience look so young you wonder how come they already make such great music? Where at all did they hear of Simon and Garfunkel, The Everly Brothers and Nick Drake. And who taught them to mix it all into something so fresh. Well, maybe there is something in those pickled Herring. It's not dead fish. It's magic." Simply Amazing Joshua J. Kellogg | Champaign, IL United States | 11/18/2003 (5 out of 5 stars) "This album came to me through a friend who was playing it at work. As I listened, I was dumb-struck. The melodies this duo weave together were magical, and they stuck with me to this very day. I now own this album, and I listen to it everywhere. It goes well with pretty much any mood I can have: chilling with friends over dinner, reading while the rain patters the ceiling, driving in the evening light with the windows rolled down. This was the only CD I took on a week-long roadtrip last summer, and everyone got hooked!!It is the kind of album that is not easily forgettable. it is one where the songs will haunt you, and you will find yourself humming them continuously. It is a far cry from the mainstream of rock music which is pervading this country right now. And you couldn't be more glad of that. Their sound is so unique, mellow yet compelling. It is simply amazing, wondrous music. I recommend this album to anyone out there who is looking for some quality music matched with originality." One Of The Best Albums I've Heard thegirlfrombackthen | Singapore | 10/26/2001 (5 out of 5 stars) "I bought this album in January this year (2001) and it has not left my Discman since then. This is not just another record you'll listen to and shelve away; this is an album that will accompany you for the rest of your life through various joys and hardships. I've listened to this album while watching the sun set, and I've listened to it while crying my eyes out over heartbreak. The music will never leave your head, and will only serve to be a soundtrack to your life. Stop wasting your money on pseudo-angsty bands like Staind and JJ72; buy it now and own a record that is priceless in value."
