Recorded in Mariehamn, Finland 2017-2018.
Originally released on by baby blue cassette by SLAGRUTA, december 30, 2019. slagruta.bandcamp.com

This recording is dedicated to the divine spark that animates persons and nations - to him whose light never falters, despite our consistent, uninterrupted failure to live up to even the most basic standards.

"It was rather new to see mothers with children at their breasts disengage their tender infants from the nipple, to pour down their little throats a portion of the dram which came to the mother's share; but still more remarkable to see these young dram-drinkers lick their lips, roll their eyes about, and stretch out their puny hands, as craving more ; shewing how accustomed they were to this beverage. The author, venturing a mild remonstrance upon seeing an affectionate mother pouring brandy down her child's throat, was told: 'It is good for them! Our children are not troubled with wind or with rickets, and our adults', giving one of the sturdy peasants a notable thump, 'see how hardy and healthy they are!'

There was no reply to such an appeal, for of the Ålanders in general it may be said, that a more vigorous race can hardly be found; and all of them have imbibed with their milk their morning drams of brandy."
- Edward Daniel Clarke
