Press Reviews Norrköpings tidningar, 18 oktober 2000.Norrköping paper =free translation, wrote,"The Banshee has nothing to do with Siouxsie & The Banshees but everything to do with Irish folk music. Most of it their music is about their own arangements of traditional Irish folkmusic and.... I take my hat off. It is very skilfully done and with high quality.
