Juno Review: Of Norway have enjoyed a long and fruitful relationship with Conaisseur and Loneliest Man is the pair’s third album for the label. As usual, it combines the Norwegian pair’s quirky humour with their wide ranging sound palette. Gentle ambient sound tracks like “The Soothing” and “Don’t Break The Silence” sit next to the tight electro of “Separation Failure” and the acid-soaked disco of “Bootes Void”. On the chilling synths of the John Carpenter meets Goblin “The Life & Death Of Italian Mantrance”, Of Norway’s ability to replicate distinct styles as well as their wry humour is most obvious, while the dreamy house of “Favourite Mistake”, which features Linnea Dale on vocals, shows that they are not afraid of mainstream sounds. It’s an accomplished, assured release.
