    Regular LP, nothing extraordinary. Cortar Todo is my fav track of the album. But I think they haven't explored what could make their music special. 6/10 for me. Zu should make it better.

    What’s impressive about this broadening and deepening of their thematic coverage is that it’s been achieved with only a few subtle adjustments to their sound, making it seem like the product of a very organic and irresistible evolution from the days when they were playing with Mats Gustafsson and Ken Vandermark.

    Zu know how to handle the groove, and even though you may not notice, by the time you’re listening to “Rudra Dances Over Burning Rome” you are totally immersed in free-jazz, hints of doom metal and a diabolical melody, right before the title-track finishes you off with an astonishing sequence of mechanical repetitions.

    There is a true appreciation and savoring of sonic texture here.
