'A great deal like the World Saxophone Quartet on acid, which is a good thing, since the latter frustratingly doesn't venture as far out as they could. These guys willingly fly far from the roost, and they do it very well...top-drawer players...with equally great senses of humour and adventure.'
'A welcome surprise'
'They can play an astonishing range of styles - everything from whispering atmospherics to raucous free jazz to Bulgarian dance tunes. Whatever the tradition, the music is leavened by a strong desire to take the piss and exploit the absurd potential of their instruments'
