| 3.0 good | ajcollins15 | April 20th 23 |
It is sad for me to see this band become more and more derivative through the years. Through the years the nu jazz vignette of the band has always been of interest. The intricate use of standup bass and drums combine for a truly mesmerizing and bright experience. However much of this new album, although those elements are still there, feels dry and out of season. I wish the band would kind of move into new realms of ideas to invigorate their sound. But for now, we have a decent helping of the same thing we have gotten in the last few releases.

Their formula was already on point, but it's now on point-er. Nu jazz spiced up by some post-minimalist passages (apparently you can't release a record on Gondwana without those) and those occasional crescendo tropes. Of course, the three bois are very (very!) competent musicians - gotta point out the drumboi isn't the same as before tho, but he's good too - and their performances are engaging, but they do not have that lil *oomph* that would propel this record at the top of their discography. It's GoGo Penguin.
