"The peak of the album is instead the beautiful suite 'Note,' perhaps Beardfish's most mature and refined composition." "Albums like this are those that in one way or another force you to listen to them attentively, and that never give you the satisfaction of a definite verdict."

The concert I waited for the most in my life, I confess, was that of Incubus. At times it felt like listening to them on a record, even though Mike Einzinger was quite sidelined to the right of the stage.

The intersection of free jazz, progressive, avant-garde, and Middle Eastern melody is always an emotion. Paolo Tofani... began to explain what that strange instrument was, of his own invention.

It felt like being at some gathering on the west coast, with that light summer breeze in the air and the sunset sun. I had never seen anyone, not even in videos, play the guitar in such a way; she seemed like an alien.

"Beardfish delivering a record with complex structures (with each listen, it surprises you with something new) and at the same time accessible and entirely enjoyable." "The rhythmic progressions are heavier and the guitars create dark atmospheres, while the general mood of the lyrics... is melancholic."

The ghosts of the greats from the seventies, Genesis above all, hover decisively, yet there’s a personal style here. It would be interesting to stage a theatrical production of 'The Light', so thin is the line at times with the 'musical' tones.
