- "recorded live from a fall 1998 tour through the eastern united states, live finds this exhilarating group in fine form. it can be hard to believe that four musicians can make such a singular clatter, but these fellows excel at ecstatic screeches and a muscular intensity that shocks the system. to their credit, they can also tone it down with some deft and suave forays. the end product is bound to please those who are immersed in free jazz. the longer of the two tracks clocks in at almost an hour, but rarely tires, due in large part to the incredible diversity of the musicians. while this cd is a fairly "typical" session (to the extent that you can ever call a free-flying, take-no-prisoners approach "typical") for this group, it is an outstanding example of one of the most exciting free-improvisation groups making the rounds." -- steven loewy, all music guide
