Album Notes & Community Reviews
Gathering an enormous ensemble of the absolute finest European avant-garde musicians, Manfred Schoof orchestrated a terrifying, utterly uncompromising free-jazz storm. 'European Echoes' is incredibly dense and fiercely manic, unleashing wildly chaotic, beautifully atonal, and completely unhinged free improvisations that feel distinctly infernal and profoundly noisy.
