I love this band...tight,wholly integrated, endlessly inventive with striking compositions.All their Intakt albums (there are 3 and counting) are wonderful and this one sees,for me, Tom Rainey in outstanding form (I loved his work in Tim Berne's Trio - check these out on Tim's Screwgun label)...Laubrock mixes the muscular and sinuous with the compositional and who can resist any opportunity to listen to Mary Halvorson? (I can't!).
