* AFTENPOSTEN: 5/6 – Convincing, effortless and steady – a singer songwriter of international standards.
* TELEMARKS AVISA: 5/6 – This album is a treasure!
* STAVANGER AFTENBLAD: 5/6 – Songs with a silent power.
* FÆDRELANDSVENNEN: 5/6 – The upturn! With his exceptional skills as a songwriter, he manages to stick out from the rest.
* HAMAR ARBEIDERBLAD: 5/6 – Full control – never has his musical style and his self confidence as an artist come through as clear and convincing as on this album.
– ITALY –
RUMORE: The fourth album of the Norwegian has hit spot on!
ROCKERILLA: Ballads of contaminating musicality.
BLOW UP: When the sound and the production is as sparse as on YGGR, the songwriting must be of such standards and quality that it sustains the entire album – in front of this immensely difficult task Nordgarden stands the test.
JAM: Not singing along to the choruses on “Keep It Shining on the Inside” or “These Lovesick Blues” is almost impossible, and without noticing it you are conquered.
