Comments:
This title translates as "unfolding". Another delightful recording--just as powerful as the earlier recordings. (neile@sff.net)
59:18 minutes of utter excellence. If you like Mari Boine's music, I can nothing but say "RUN AND GET THIS!". The album reminds me more of Goaskinviella (Eagle Brother) than of Gula Gula. Not only the song writing is excellent, also the technical side of the recording. While Goaskinviella lacked a little bit of the pure emotion of Gula Gula, this one almost comes close to it. Not quite, but then there's the musical and technical quality to admire. I still don't know which one I like better, Gula Gula or Leahkastin. What you most definitely need for Leahkastin is a very good stereo, else you'll miss a lot. This is music you can't really enjoy if you let it run in the background. No, rather take your time and *listen*. Maybe even on headphones, but at least concentrate on the album. You'll be rewarded. For all those bass-notes-of-doom collectors: listen to the third track ("Cuovgi Liekkas") at mediocre volume and ask your neighbors what happened after about two and a half minutes. You also shouldn't listen to track 6 ("Mielahisvuohta") at too high volume if you already do have trouble with your landlord. (uli@zoodle.robin.de)
It's an excellent album--I suspect I'll get to like this one even better than Goaskinviellja. While the sound is indeed similar, the main difference is, I think, that the new album is more dynamic--probably due to more extensive use of bass drums and guitars. (jbr@casetech.dk)
Highly recommended. (onealien@mo.himolde.no)
