4 stars Nordic power trio's debut album. Jazzy by its structure and punk-rockish by its energy,aesthetics and sound, music on this album are collection of improvs played by very competent musicians.

Sound is quite ascetic, but noisy and scratchy at the same time. The best way to imagine how does it sounds think about Japanese brutal noise-avant of last decade (Ruins,etc), but without dark hardcore brutality, and with strong jazzy vibrations instead of it.

Music is sharp but complex rhythm and musical themes' breaks are played with such virtuosity that you often would not feel that sharpness. Some compositions are almost elegant!

Good album for fans of noisy avant-rock with jazzy flavour.
