Melodic Scottish pop-Celtic crossover
Joe Sixpack -- Slipcue.com | ...in Middle America | 06/10/2008
(4 out of 5 stars)

"Another strong Celtic crossover set by Scotland's fusion-y Capercaillie, with lead vocals from Karen Matheson and an lineup that includes Donald Shaw on accordion, Manus Lunny on bouzouki and Michael McGoldrick playing the pipes. The album opens up with the funky, resolutely pop "Him Bo," and then weaves back and forth between tradition and modernism. There's an anti-war anthem, courtesy of John Martyn, lots of mellow, electronic-tinged grooves, and a hefty dose of trad, woven deep into the mix. Personally, I love it when Matheson sings in Gaelic, and like many old-fashioned folkies, I prefer a more traditional acoustic sound. But Capercaillie fans know what to expect by now, and this album certainly will not disappoint listeners who are open to a bit of pop in with their Celtic music. (DJ Joe Sixpack, Slipcue Music Guide)"
