Great... but not their best.

""Vapen & Ammunition" was actually the first full Kent album I ever heard and obviously it was good enough to spark my interest as I proceeded to go out and buy all of their other cds. But once I had them all, I realized that this one was not nearly as great as their others (especially "Isola" and "Hagnesta Hill"). Don't get me wrong, I love the cd... just not as much as I did before hearing everything that came before it. This album seems a little softer, a little less guitar driven... like a "kindler, gentler Kent" kind of thing. Don't let this discourage anyone from buying this cd. It's totally worth the money, and is a must have for any fan of Kent. But take my advice and don't let this be the only Kent cd you own. Key tracks are "Sundance Kid" (my fave) and "Dom Andra"."
Don't miss it

"If you don't check out this CD you are basically denying yourself one of the best albums ever. It's even better than Hagnesta Hill, which was somehow even better than Isola..and so one back to Kent's debut CD. If you're into pop/rock/alternative at all, of just curious even, check this one out."
4 stars and I don't even know what they're saying!

"Kent is an unbelievable band, if you don't have Isola and Hagnesta Hill (english versions) then RUN and buy them now. Vapen & Ammunition is unfortunately in Swedish and I seriously doubt we will ever get another english Kent CD, since the rest of the world ignores them. But this takes up where Isola left off, and while Hagnesta is a great album it was a tad too synthy to equal Isola, and even though this is in Swedish i have a feeling this would have equaled Isola. I know this sounds crazy, but that's what happens when us Anglos get addicted to Kent! So in summary - a worthy buy for the Kent fan, even if you don't speak the language. Hey, just think, when that Swedish exchange student comes over to your bachelor pad, you will have the perfect CD to make out to! That's what I'm counting on, anyways."
