Review

The band's most sophisticated album to date uses computer-triggered synthesizers to expand the palette of colors beyond the already impressive acoustic talents of the quartet. The album also includes originals by O Domhnill's sister, Triona, whose abilities on keyboards, whistle, and accordion are second only to her expressive vocals. ~ Linda Kohanov, All Music Guide
