"It is perfectly executed and it offers great music and lyrics in abundance. Jukič’s view of the condition of the human spirit is unusually mature and precise and at the same time written in very literal way, which give it an added value. The media would be full of praise, if a record like this was to be released in the USA, and justly so. In our parts such a thing isn’t possible with media focusing on corrupt and immature politicans or on those who think they are stars because they decided so. None of them can be helped. Robert’s record is amazing and will stay amazing even when everything else ends on the junkyard of history." Polet
"Suggestive, dramatic and utmost original." Radio Študent
"Surprise? A very big one!" Odzven
"Robert’s double album is a set of great accomplishments!" Novice
"The project is definitely unique. A mixture of soundtrack-like backgrounds, spoken words and blues/story-stylistical approach is something we didn’t expect from a “jazz” guy." Rockline
"They perfectly painted a picture of a land where John Wayne, Clint Eastwood, Johnny Cash and NIck Cave walk around to music of Ennio Morricone." Delo
"(Robert is an) artist who is breaking prejudices." Glasna
"Robert Jukič is in a forceful creative swing." Odzven
"This is the right record for you if you want quality, surprises and swim in different sonic waters than those offered by MSM." Stop
