On their 9th album, Swedish folkrockers Kebnekajse (named after sweden's highest mountain) continues their journey through world music, mixing it with traditional swedish folkmusic and psychedelic rock and beautiful melodies. For hardcore fans this is probably as good as ever, the album got some good reviews, but there are no supergood songs, it is kind of low key, but it never gets bad though. Just not my type of music even if I can enjoy some of it.

The band is still evolving even though their first album was released in 1971. They re-formed in 2001 after a hiatus of about 30 years and this is their 3rd album since that.

1)Snickar-Anders (6,0) A typical Kebnekajse violin-based melodic 70's instrumental prog.

2)Vallåt efter Britta Jansson (6,5) Low key instrumental.

3)Spelmannen (6,0) Kind of a ballad with clear vocals and nice acoustic guitar melody.

4)Aventure (4,0) Slow monotone song for 8 minutes in talked french about Senegal and Scandinavia. Too boring.

5)Svartbergstrollen (6,5) Uptempo violinsong.

6)Vallåt efter Måns Olsson (5,0) Mystic fingerpicking instrumental.

7)Midsommarnattsdröm (6,5)

8)Tikli ja Tiira (6,0)

9)Battery (3,0) Monotone african rhythms.

Score: 5,50
