reception
Siggy Zielinsky from Babyblauen Seiten gives the album a rating of 11/15: “While the music on the previous album 'Pork Soda' often came across as dry and hammer-like, 'Tales from the Punchbowl' sounds much lighter and more carefree ... Overall, you can delight in all of its performances on the virtuoso bass, admire the perfect interplay of the trio, marvel at the drummer's technique, possibly get annoyed with the singer's voice or wonder whether too much humor can be harmful to the music.
