Moving from independent Bad Vugum label to international EMI might be a deed that many hardcore fans surely won't accept. However, this album, succeeding the excellent Veljeskunta, is definitely a must-get for all hard rock fans.
Aurinko, in its own way, is almost like Veljeskunta, but with better production and smoother sound. CMX have became even more distorted guitar-driven, which is good actually, when it fits perfectly to Yrjänä's great lyrics and manic ambition. There are actually no bad songs on this album. CMX have offered a thick package of post-punk hard rock music that can't be forgotten easily. ~ Antti J. Ravelin
