Thrusting muscular sounds here again from saxophonist Jure Pukl after earlier releases on the issuing label Whirlwind.

Guitarist Charles Altura provides a lot of colour and depth behind him and Altura has a dazzling sense of space and composure.

Very much a serious chops band all round everyone plays as if their lives depend on it. Vibist Joel Ross offers a little more cerebral respite away from the constant scrappling momentum, while the rhythm section with bassist Matt Brewer and drummer Kweku Sumbry is professional and neat at all times. An album then to conclude easy to admire rather than completely subscribe to nonetheless check out the intriguing build-up on ‘Separation’ especially as one of the more absorbing pieces.

Too busy a sound? Yes to an extent but that is the way Pukl likes to go. Still waiting for a definitive statement from him. Maybe he needs someone else to produce him other than himself. Let's see in the future. For now this is fine. SG
