  1. 8.0 |   Mojo

    If they were Scandinavians they would be selling out arenas very soon. Print edition only

  2. 7.0 |   Uncut

    Expansive arrangements, fusing harps, dulcimers and guitars with dub beats, loops and pounding bass. Print edition only

  3. 6.0 |   Q

    9Bach weave their tales so delicately that telling them in a minority language need not be their commercial death knell. Print edition only

  4. 6.0 |   Drowned In Sound

    An uneven entry; too self-conscious in its attempt to transcend the expectations of contemporary Welsh language music

  5. 6.0 |   The Observer

    Takes simple elements – Lisa Jên’s ethereal vocals, piano, bass and percussion, harp and hammer dulcimer – and weaves complex patterns
