5 stars MUSIC FROM THE TANK FULL OF PREDATORY FISH...

This is not ordinary Motorpsycho album, but their side project with three excellent musicians from related acid jazz band jaga Jazzist and one special guest. The result of this connection is very pleasant surprise for me.

I think the name "Jaga Jazzist Horns" would to be at the first place because their influence is more significant here. Jazz music outweights rock, especially in instrumental songs.

All musicians here are technically perfect of course and emphasizing any member of this project would be useless. Connection between both sides, Motorpsycho and Jaga Jazzist is very strong. Fruit of their endeavour takes greatly compact effect.

You can find here a little bit Motorpsycho´s "common" Heavy Prog and ton of a Jazz in his many forms, from swing ("Bombay Brassiére") , over funky ("Theme de Yoyo") to free jazz (excellent final 20´53´´ long track "Tristano").

I like this album because I like jazz, I like heavy rock sound like Motorpsycho and I like fusion sometimes. This record sounds very fresh (but mature!) and I can recommend it to all Jazz/Fusion and Heavy Prog fans!!!
