Album Review
Craig Matsumoto
Reviewed 2006-03-04
Improvised jazz with trumpet/sax lead plus bass and drums. Lots of brash sounds in a setting that's upbeat and almost humorous at times. Lots of energy, an ecstatic jazzy feel; Seth Misterka on sax is particularly fierce at times, lots of dark energy (check out his metal-friendly stuff in the Jazz section of the library.) Very nice stuff that grabs you quickly.

1- Brisk, fast, exciting
2- Quiet, spare, w/bluesy sax solo
3- Bouncy near-classical feel, nice ending
4- Bass sawing and quiet horn babble
5- Mid/fast stacatto attack
6- Squeaky, sparse, funny. Nice groove near the end
7- Quiet spurts of sound. Feels fast, in a sparse way
8- Ferocious attack. Fast, harsh
9- Haunting, dire, mid/fast. Bass drone & thin sax wails
10- A cool, careful feel; gets into a calmly fierce jam
