Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Scorch Trio is a very apt description for this combo's power-surge brand of improvisation. Finnish guitarist Raoul Björkenheim is best known for his work with Edward Vesala, whilst bassist Ingebrigt Håker Flaten and drummer Paal Nilssen-Love are Norway's rhythm team of the moment, playing with Bugge Wesseltoft, Hakon Kornstad and Atomic. The threesome's eruptions are lovingly recorded on analogue equipment by Kai Andersen, live in the studio. This disc demands a liberal twist of the volume control, taking on a demonic urgency when the speaker cones start to melt. Björkenheim emerges from the Jimi Hendrix and Sonny Sharrock lineage, the blues being a discernible remnant amidst the wreckage of his contorting experimentation. Raoul's restless, heat-seeking bursts are often drenched in the kind of modulating special effects that Wayne Krantz has been using for some time (Björkenheim also dwells in New York now, so it's not certain who got there first). He turns his solos inside out, twisting into strange shapes, switching pitches and apeing the sound of hammered metal tubing. The Norwegians match Håker Flaten ripping out frayed electric funk lines. This is the power trio genre goaded into its most savage expression yet. --Martin Longley
Album Description
Unique Finnish composer and guitar master Raoul Björkenheim teams up with the hot, young Norwegian rhythm section of Håker Flaten (bass) and Nilssen-Love (drums) in a classic power trio. Burning with an untamed energy this is neither jazz nor rock, but a free spirited music that in places reminds us of Hendrix' Band Of Gypsies. The three of them have worked with names like Bill Laswell, Jah Wobble, Edward Vesala, Iain Ballamy, Dave Liebman, Tony Oxley, Pat Metheny, Django Bates, Nils Petter Molvær and others. Like all rune grammofon releases, it has a striking minimalist sleeve design by Kim Hiorhøy.
