Torille, suomalaisen musiikkigenrensä mestarin uudelle albumille hurjasti kehuja maailmalta

Micke Björklöf & Blue Strip julkaisee tänään 30-vuotisen uransa kunniaksi uuden studioalbumin "Colors of Jealousy".

Pitkän ja komean uran tehneen yhtyeen kahdeksas albumi henkii 1980-90-luvun blues-estetiikkaa ja kertoo elämästä, sen iloista ja suruista juuri niin rouheasti, kuin vuodet ovat antaneet aihetta.

Albumi julkaistaan samana päivänä Euroopassa fyysisenä ja digitaalisena julkaisuna ja maailmanlaajuisesti digitaalisesti. Albumi on saanut erinomaisia arvioita kansainvälisissä musiikkimedioissa:

Music That Needs Attention, Hollanti
What's in the barrel doesn't sour.
This band still sounds very driven after more than thirty years. The more than excellent Colors of Jealousy features a text booklet with beautiful artwork. “More than an excellent album.”

Rootstime, Belgia
With their eighth album "Colors Of Jealousy" Micke Bjorklof & Blue Strip will certainly establish themselves in roots and blues music.
The band is stretching genre boundaries and is definitely worth discovering Finland as not only the country with the fascinating winter lights, but also as the country with blues music.

Eclipsed, Saksa
Micke Bjorklof always wins when he dedicates himself to the blues and blues rock. This is where he finds the greatest authenticity.

Stereo, Saksa
They don’t give a damn about current trends, they remain true to rustic and rough blues rock. It just works without innovations. 4/5
