Ejazznews.com Review of "The Round" October 2005

This is a group with a total handle on the idiom they love......JAZZ!! Their finely honed delivery bespeaks their combined mastery, & alto sax man Alexander McCabe has 'come to play.' This group is a radical departure from what might be considered 'the ordinary.' Subdividing beats......crisp accents.... ....an exceptional ability to create gainful harmonic and complex melodic phrasing.....with an emphasis on sustained momentum & hard rhythmic drive. All in all, this group epitomizes an innovative matrix of superb combined technique & taste.
