Rootszone.dk har netop anmeldt Malinkys 20-års jubilæumsalbum, Handsel, og skriver bl.a. "Øvelse gør stadig mester, og det er til at høre på dobbelt- CD’en, at gruppen bare bliver bedre og bedre [...] Et dejligt dobbeltalbum, der må være et must under juletræet for yndere af den keltiske sangtradition!".

Og det er ikke bare rootszone, der kan lide albummet:
"A bumper two-hour, two-CD, set celebrating 20 years of this great song-orientated Scots group. It’s super stuff. [...] ...this is a band with a great respect for the tradition."
- Paul Mansfield, Living Tradition
"Handsel – the name refers to a traditional New Year gift – is a really splendid album. Both the old and the new music resonate with the feeling of timelessness that makes folk music special."
- Dai Jeffries, folking.com
"This is how you do a 20th-anniversary album: with a nod to your past as well as your present, but also a tribute to the singers who inspired your involvement in traditional music – and a salute to those who will keep the tradition alive. [...] Of course, these folks aren’t just dedicated scholars. They can sing the heck out of these songs, individually or collectively"
- Sean Smith, Boston Irish Reporter
