The Truth
An abrasive yet thoroughly enjoyable improv jazz record.

Claudio Milano never fails to create some truly avant and awesome music and this new Adython album is a great one. Somewhat in the vein of John Zorn, this wild and at times insane album consists of two long improvised pieces loaded with screaming vocal parts, wailing saxes and some truly eargasmic moments. It's creative beauty in music in the truest sense.

Now, while I enjoy this, the album would basically be a love-hate relationship with most. For many listeners, this would be too abrasive and too insane, but for me and others I hope, it is a wild ride. I had a fun time being surprised by how odd the record was initially but eventually it just sunk into my eardrums like most jazz records do. It was a very surreal experience.

4 stars, a listen never hurt anyone and the results for people like me are especially favorable.
