From Tokyo: Prog rock jazz fusion with a heavy edge. Jesus Lizard meets Weather Report as conducted by Jeff Beck. Instrumental jams with searing guitar and cool keys/bad assed Hammond type Deep Purple organ. Mathy complex time signatures: check. Big bad takes no prisoners. Cuneiform release.

1)* (5:02) crunchy doomy bordering on Jesus Lizard/Scratch Acid
2) (5:47) off time, off kilter
3)* (5:16) Rhodes type piano, minor urgent tone with heavy as shit guitar
4) (5:23) brighter tone, melodic riffs, mathy
5)* (7:16) cool and weird, Jeff Beck comes to mind with guitar melody, kick ass breakdown midway, doomy!
6) (5:31) just a smokin off time kick ass jam
7) (3:42) another good jam, somewhat minor, keys and guit trade off
8) (5:19) starts sparser than others, trippier feel in guitar
9)* (4:54) rock power chords to start sets tone to genuine rocker
10) (4:50) big dark doomy tone, chill at start,goes thru parts with space (my mp3 copy for review crapped out at end so watch the CD)
