Album Notes & Community Reviews

The virtuosic Japanese instrumental trio entirely abandons traditional rock instrumentation, relying solely on two interlocking pianos and a hyper-kinetic drum kit. 'The Flowers of Romance' masterfully weaves classical piano flourishes into the frantic, incredibly complex rhythmic structures of math rock. The album stands as a profoundly melodic, highly energetic, and wonderfully unpredictable exploration of modern jazz fusion.
