« In Action » reviewed at Downtown Music Gallery, NYC (USA)
« This bands remains an impressive jazz/rock sextet. « Switch Foot Pogo » has a cool, somewhat funky, elastic, spastic yet infectious groove. It has an electric Miles-like vibe at first and then suddenly the tempo is doubled and it jumps into a hyperdrive. « Gods & Goods » has a fine, laid back, somewhat funky groove with inspired solos from the guitar and tight electric piano interplay. There is a tight, exuberant quality that runs throughout this disc. It sounds quite a bit like some mid-seventies jazz/rock but with none of the problems of fusion, no fast licks or showboating. On « Seau d’air », the sextet take their time slowly building and creating much suspense without any solos involved. This fine disc ends with a lengthy piece called « I said Haha » which again shows a strong, more restrained side with some long, tasty, sly guitar and sax solos and an overall simmering, hypnotic vibe. Another excellent offering from the fine folks at Kopasetic. »
