5th studio album by Love Shop introduce a return to a rock-universe, and it introduces Mikkel Damgaard for the first time on additional keyboards.
Musically, the album is fine but it's also a somewhat uneven release. The style is much like on the acclaimed forth album Go! only with less energy. The first track is the band's continued tradition in contributing to the Danish collection of contemporary pop classics, and although, the album also contains other fine compositions it also contains several tracks that are not on the same high level and merely feel like album fillers.
Overall, Det løse liv is still in the high end of what other Danish artists release these years, but when thinking of what Love Shop has already accomplished it does vain in comparison.
