hyperreal1, May 15, 2007

It combines the sounds of melodic and treble piano, the amazing rhythm of funky bass, the strident power of sax in free jazz with the rough voice of punk. One of the most exciting albums of James Chance & The Contortions that shows what was the pulse in the post-punk era, when jazz, funk and punk mix togheter to create an avant garde style.
