The inside-cover photo montage of the members of Accordion Tribe shows three of the accordionists, Bratko Bibic, Lars Hollmer, and Otto Lechner, with facial expressions suggesting a trio of Scandinavian metal badasses, while Guy Klucevsek's expression reflects the countenance of a kindly, warm, and loving granddad who just might let his grandson's Scandinavian metal band practice in his basement. Tribeswoman Maria Kalaniemi projects straightforward confidence and self-assurance, as if she knows her accordion playing could share the studio or stage with anyone -- even a Scandinavian metal band -- and emerge triumphant. Of course, Accordion Tribe are about as far from metal as one can get, but there's no harm in projecting a bit of heavy attitude, even with tongue in cheek, when there is so much heavy talent in the house.

And like the Tribe's second CD, 2003's Sea of Reeds, the studio sessions give Lunghorn Twist a stronger sense of cohesiveness than the band's 1998 nonetheless fine debut disc, which had been recorded live on tour in a variety of locations.
