#2867 Lindstrom - It's Alright Between Us At It Is

Those first 13 minutes are as gloriously ethereal and groove-packed as anything Lindstrom's ever done, swooping ever-smoothly between tones and styles. His moves into vocals are a miss though - Frida and Grace have great voices, but they distract from the Lindstrom sound, reducing it to generic club music and breaking up the album flow. Jenny Hval's turn on Bungl's weird enough that it works as 8-slot gonzo diversion, but it's not exactly a highlight.

Still, there's some great stuff here, further cementing Lindstrom's place as the captain of the Norwegian space disco starship 3.5/5
