Perhaps the tightest band in existence right now return with an astonishing new album – their first in 8 years – we ain’t talking about the Swedish psych troupe, nor the Greek metal act; but the infinitely superior Japanese goat (jp) who take the micro-precision of computer music and play it on instruments. They make a devilish display of interlocking, pointillist drums newly gelled with the addition of harmonic, 4th world woodwind, brass and texture that will completely destroy you – especially played loud – huge recommendation if yr into anything from This Heat to Miles Davis, early Battles to Jon Hassell, Moin and Autechre. We’re deep in AOTY zone right here.
