Album Notes & Community Reviews

This 7-inch single served as a precursor to Colin Stetson's breakthrough album 'New History Warfare Vol. 2: Judges'. The two tracks showcase his revolutionary approach to the saxophone, employing circular breathing, percussive valve-work, and vocalizations to create a maelstrom of sound without overdubs or loops. The A-side in particular is a stunning display of the physical intensity and complex rhythmic layering that would define his solo work.
