Afenginn's homebrewed compositions and unique style has been categorized as bastard-ethno, with a sigh of Nordic melancholy and a twist of cheerful madness. We are talking a twilight zone, where also Tom Waits, Gogol Bordello, Tiger Lillies and Kaizers Orchestra can be found.

In addition to many positive reviews, Retrograd also received a Danish Music Award for -Best World Album- in 2005. The debutalbum has so far been honoured with critics as: -They are shockingly good, with imagination and technique that won't quit. If there's justice, they'll be huge-. fROOTS, March 2006 and -For one times sake I have to take off my hat!...and the rest of the clothes as well.- Kultunaut, November 2004.
