    AAL not only continue to cut through genre restrictions, but do so while considering song and structure. [Dec 2016, p.100]

    Abasi's unique thump technique gives needed life to passages other technical players would simply pick their way through, as Reyes and drummer Matt Garstka lock in to drive these sputtering rhythms home with power and proficiency.

    Madness is a spacious and satisfying record: what it lacks in standout moments, it makes up for in coherence.
