Reviews

The reviews were mostly positive. Motor.de wrote: “The first solo album from the Tomte singer shows some new facets of the German indie rock darling. The bustling sympathy quickly exchanged his main band for other excellent musicians. And with them behind you, that is anticipated, Uhlmann's hymns swing into other, but no less airy spheres. Exactly why is "Thees Uhlmann" justified - as a person anyway, as an album but it is also ". Laut.de wrote," Uhlmann has no trivial authors cinema, but can from the beginning to the large cinemascope screen lit Like a. Old Shatterhand , separated from his Winnetou-Tomte, he makes his way undaunted to the German prairie of longing . " Rollingstone.de summarized the criticism and wrote: "If this album were a film - based on the rhetoric of the Tomte singer - it would be Forrest Gump : a poignant smear theater."
