Suomalaiset yhtyeet -kuten Murmansk ja Joensuu 1685 - saivat osakseen erinomaisen vastaanoton Tanskan Spot-festivaaleilla, johon kerääntyi vaikutusvaltaisia toimittajia mm. Englannista:
http://www.clashmusic.com/live-review/spot-festival-the-clash-review "Time for a quick sprint back to the site for the similarly intense Murmansk, a Finnish outfit with a shoegazing bent. The few punters whove left the sun to head inside are well rewarded by a raucous guitar attack and a tiny but powerful front woman in Laura Soininen: the girls a star."
http://www.mojo4music.com/blog/2009/06/denmark_full_points.html Mojo: "A change in mood comes with two Finnish bands: Murmansk and Joensuu 1685. Murmansk mix the attack of Death Valley 69 Sonic Youth with My Bloody Valentine and top it with Julie Driscoll vocals. The all-out assault of Joensuu 1685 draws from Recurring-era Spacemen 3 and La Düsseldorf to wig-lifting effect. Finland is in good hands."
