Album Notes & Community Reviews

Returning from a lengthy seven-year hiatus, the revered Australian instrumental trio reunites to deliver their rawest, most visceral album in years. Driven by Warren Ellis's impassioned violin and Mick Turner's explosive drumming, the record eschews traditional post-rock crescendos for spontaneous, jazz-inflected interplay.
