Ken Vandermark is one of my 'big five' and this new(ish) project (four albums now) is already shaping up to become somewhat definitive.
I try not to use superlatives to describe music I find it necessary to your well-being to listen to but sometimes you have to admit it's the only way to go: a brilliant diamond in the dust.
It's akin to igniting rocket fuel... the momentum is unstoppable and it engenders the aural equivalent of arc-light. John Cratchley

Free Jazz at its best. Only discovered Tim Berne recently. I love the tension between structure and improvisation on this live album. You get extended really crazy improvisations out of which a structured driving riff will appear. Its really thrilling! Like tension exploding! So yeah, I love Bloodcount but I realise this wont be for everyone 😁. Crinklechips

This album released on Clean Feed Records is outstanding on so many levels and I'm kicking myself for not picking it up sooner. A brilliantly performed piece of musical art by Joe McPhee, Jamie Saft, Joe Morris and Charles Downs that pushes creativity into the stratosphere! Yummy! 😎 Rick Mathis
