AKKU Quintet
Depart
Review by Gary Hill
It seems that a whole school of instrumental prog has emerged rooted in both the guitar based sounds of King Crimson and jazz rock. This act lands in that zone. This disc features some powerful cuts that have a wide range of sounds and textures. It works really well. If you like strong instrumental prog that features horns along with killer guitars and a potent rhythm section, this is for you. It's full of peaks and valleys and has plenty of contrasts and changes.
