Malmitalo, Helsinki, 29.3.2019, Album release.

"Band namesake Lena Lindroos has a fantastic voice…. Lena has a powerful clear delivery that is very much her own. Her singing voice is reassuring; never a sour note or mis-handled phrase."

"A band calling themselves “The Slide Brothers” had better deliver some first rate slide, and these folks do."Bluesblastmagazine.com (U.S.A) 9/2019 (IV)

”Here is true quality of song writing on the album, what to me, is a first class collection of well written songs, enhanced by some superb musicianship..." Blues Matters!- Magazine (UK) 8/9-2019 (IV)

"Mightily impressive set with an individual sound, but also deeply rooted in the traditional blues." bluesinthesouth.com (UK) 10/2019 (IV)

"...Songs that immediately blow open the dusted blues doors with a fresh wind. As if they were born in the delta of the north..." Rootsville.eu (NL) 9-2019 (IV)

"Each and every song is a small pearl. I'm singing, I'm swinging, I'm digging and enjoying... a solid winner from Finland" ****** 6/6 - Blues News Norway 6/2019 (IV)

"Lena has a very pleasant raw vocal timbre that is very easily guided by Matti Kettunen's slideguitar. Highly recommended!" (4,5 / 5) keysandchords.com (Belgium) 8/2019 (IV)

"Overall, this well produced CD provides original tunes that are scrumptious and well written and the musicianship top notch." Boogety Shoe Blues (U.S.A) 9/2019 (IV)

"The sounds are sonic, skillful and solid, the songwriting is well crafted and the production is expansive and sophisticated yet still with that raw edge that makes it a great blues album." -thebluesmusicblog 5.6.2019 (IV)

"...Kaikkia levyn kappaleita en tilan puutteen vuoksi ala kehumaan, vaan kehotan kuuntelemaan ne itse..." - Honey Aaltonen, Blues News 3/2019 (IV)

"Lena & The Slide Brothers on laadultaan ja monipuolisuudeltaan ainutlaatuinen Suomessa - bändi, jollaisen yleisö tarvitsee ja ansaitsee." - Blues-Finland.com 14.5.2019 (IV)

"With 'IV' Lena & The Slide Brothers adds another interesting and varied album to their collection..."- Rootstime.be 9.5.2019 (IV)

"Vaatii pokeria nimetä albuminsa yhden maailman parhaan rock- levyn kaimaksi, mutta Lena & The Slide Brothersille on annettava kiit- tävät paperit." **** 4/5 - Karjalainen 6.5.2019 (IV)

"On silti, ja aina yhtä mukavaa, todistaa vilpitöntä soittamisen riemua ja hyvää tuulta ympärilleen luovaa, ammattitaitoista ja tyylitajuista tekemistä." -Matti Rinne RIFFI (Malmitalo) 1.4.2019

"Kahden slidekitaran duetointi iski kipinää Malmitalossa" -Arto Pajukallio HS 30.3.2019

"Levy on soitannollisesti luokkaa erinomainen ja myös sävellyspuolella on näkemystä" - Riffi (The Road 2016)

"Itse asiassa koko bändi osoittautui julmetun kovatasoiseksi ja silti otsa rypyssä puurtaminen loisti poissaolollaan. Lena & The Slide Brothers osaa musisoinnin lisäksi viihdyttämisen taidon ja siitä Down Home Kiven keikka antoi vastaansanomattoman todistuksen, kymmenen plus!" - Jyrki Kallio (Rytmimusiikkia-blogi 10/2017)

"Blues av högsta klass, kan ju inte bli bättre." - Jazzklubben Sundsvall 2/2018
