5 out of 5 stars Norwegian Psych-Pop Bliss.......2005-01-18

Camera Obscura says "The fifth full-length release of song-bliss from Norwegian psychedelic-pop wizards the Dipsomaniacs, who rejoin their arc of previous releases with their finest collection of songs to date. (Various fine side dishes were served up on Free City Media's "The Tremolo Of Her Mind/The Strings Of Her Soul" but "Praying Winter" is the continuation of the song and studio craft established with increasing authority on earliest albums.) "Praying Winter" is naked, personal and staggeringly beautiful - the band's most intimate and open work to date. Psychedelic flourishes have been toned down to pull the focus of the songs back onto the emotional weight of Holm's melodies, words and vocals. Fans of the swirl of vintage psych-pop need not fear though - here is band that seems to sound psychedelic no matter what they do. Art and craft collide everywhere - each song perfectly arranged to suit its needs, whether this involves the addition of a George Martinesque string quartet arrangement here, strategic use of brass there, or in one case Håkon Gebhardt from Motorpsycho contributing banjo to "No. 2 Ventricle Road". The opener "Dear Mrs Widdercombe", title track, and Norwegian hit single "Read My Mind" are surely modern pop classics, but perhaps the darker tones of "How to Fall" and "Caught By This Feeling" linger longest in the mind. They bless us with undying echoes."
