CD 'The Wire' about their first trio-release: (...) there are moments on this album when the engery is so furiously intense it feels like it‘s going to spin out of control and take someone's eye out. Sakata delivers wry alto phrases, as though from the corner of his mouth, before disgressing into urgent flights of fancy, and finally launching into screaming, red-faced declamation – fuelled by Nilsen-Love's boiling pulse-time drums and and the low bounce of Berthling‘s double bass Akira Sakata - alto saxophone, clarinet, voice / Johan Berthling - double bass / Paal Nilssen-Love - drums & percussion / Cover image 'Black Submarine' by Sagaki Keita / Fotos by Micke Keysendal / Recorded at Atlantis Grammofon, Stockholm by Janne / Hansson, 20th may 2015 / Mixed at Oodion, Göteborg by Mikael Werliin, december 2015 Jazz
