TROST 231LP
|
From the outset this ad hoc quartet hit the gas, launching into a frenzied, high-octane set with alto saxophonist Rasmussen engaging in a furious tightrope-walk of upper register screams while O'Rourke unspools some of the most gnarly guitar noise. The entire recording is a testament to refined listening. Even at the most scorching peaks each player is deftly attuned to one another's sonic projections. Bridging generations, continents, and individual aesthetics, Rasmussen, Corsano, Sakata, and O'Rourke find common cause, convening for an evening of galvanic sound that's simultaneously exhilarating and spiritual. Recorded on May 20, 2017 at Superdeluxe, Tokyo by Joe Talia. Mixed and mastered by Joe Talia. Ceramic artwork "Red Form" from 2003 by Torbjørn Kvasbø.
