"The 1992-97 recordings on Here, There, Down & Up! of the Swedish group Nods Off present bracing free Jazz sparked by the volcanic drumming of Peter Olsen and with the distinctive cry of saxophonist Stefan Wistrand. (…) Nods Off is another distinguished member of a small but vibrant free Jazz scene in Sweden, and one that's worth hearing." - Stuart Kremsky (CADENCE - The Review of Jazz & Blues: Creative Improvised Music, 8/2001 - USA)

"…varied and real interesting to listen to."

“Rather than coming off as experimenting for experiment’s sake, the trio appear confident in all their elements. Magicians and prodigies they’re not, but this is a group full of good ideas and the strength to make them work”

Scot Hacker (CADENCE The review of Jazz & Blues: Creative Improvised Music, 10/1994 - USA)

”The Swedish jazz trio Nods Off plays an especially disciplined form of free jazz: most of the eight tracks on this EP are under two minutes long! Such brevity, combined with the fact that the recording was made live in the studio, bespeaks a band that knows what it’s doing”

Mark Sullivan (OPTION, No. 55 1994 March/April – USA)

”These three daring women does songs from people in the province: some happy yoiks, some that have an Arabian taste. It is a relief to hear music that’s not ingratiating.”

Ingmar Glanzelius (DAGENS NYHETER 2000-06-30)

”A unique release, though, worth looking into.”

Jason Bivins (CADENCE - The Review of Jazz & Blues: Creative Improvised Music, 8/2001 - USA)
