Mix of free jazz and psych guitar in a multifaceted jam. Many tracks start off with a low-level burble of electronics, synth, and drums, a bit like experimental dance electronica. Then, the sax and trumpet come in for some free-jazz sounds often backed by a solid and ferocious drum beat. Some nutty guitar also adds a psych/fusiony kind of craziness. Great stuff with a fresh sound. All tracks SEGUE, so watch beginnings and endings. 1- Low burble, somewhere between mellow and ominous 2- Psych groove, even a tad funky. 3- Fast dark jam 4- Low burble 5- Lonely horns, builds to an intense hovering jam 6- Medium-speed interlude, odd crunchy rhythm later 7- Crunchy rhythm continues w/cool-handed guitar solo 8- 24-second BLAST 9- Bass guitar groove, cool stuff 10- Groove continues (more complex), picks up a sax 11- Turns up the guitar heat after a quiet triplet rhythm 12- Solid triplet jam, after a wandering burble 13- Burning and nearly METAL! Easy, chugging start. 14- Lingering, with small breathy horn sounds 15- Fast, in a cooldown way, builds to explosive finale | ||
