4.0 out of 5 stars Scorch Trio- Brolt! LP Review (8/10), 25 May 2008
By experimusicdotcom "experiment with music" (united kingdom) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Brolt [VINYL] (Vinyl)
Fusing spiraling improv-jazz with downtuned post-Mclaughlin jazz-rock fusion, this Norwegian power-trio plow through 6 movements of bustling sonics with mind boggling time-signature shiftage, ultra-precise polyrhythmic micro-drumming and jarring bass swirls that are in a constant battle to break free from one-another and launch off into their own respective trajectories. Consisting of Nilssen-Love, Håker Flaten and Björkenheim, the highly experienced trio with influences ranging from Zappa and Hendrix to Coltrane and Eric Dolphy, follow up their acclaimed albums `Scorch Trio' and `Luggumt' in a similar vein- through the utilisation of old-school analogue recordings. The process involves hooking up vintage microphones and playing live straight to analogue multi-track tape with no overdubs and editing and then mixing down to quarter inch analogue tape. This methodology removes the cold, sterile grating sound typically associated with improv bands and replaces it with a warm and glowing, almost 70's-esque aesthetic.

Through utilising skeletal psyche-rock melodics that exist on the periphery of the bulk sound, the trio tone down the unforgiving turbulence usually associated with free-jazz and lock the listener in, whilst (of course) incessantly bombarding them with collapsing instrumentation and sci-fi electronic skree. Occasionally they slow things down and morph into an ambient recess that allows one to gather themselves in preparation for the next onslaught, an onslaught that builds subtly and intricately from the roots.

From the subtle Eastern-tinged brushes and scraps of `Basjen' to the drone-laden, occult psyche jazz soundscape that adorns the closing sections of `Gaba', `Brolt!' is an impressively varied album that keeps on pushing the boundaries of fusion. The stomping and angular military-esque passage found towards the end of `Olstra' shows the trio's rock influences rise to the fore whilst adding a refreshing, energy-creating dynamic whilst `Hys' takes these rock influences and puts them through a freak-jazz blender. The track commences with a fantastically warped and fractured staccato guitar structure under which a deep-fried, out-of-focus melody drifts before fusing with clustered percussives and gaining a heady momentum which will leave space-hippies in cosmic climbs. It is this finely crafted fusion of rock dynamics into the molten free-jazz brew where Scorch Trio create their distinctive and elaborate sound, a sound that swings between tightly clustered, micro-noodling valleys and cosmic, destructo-jazz peaks, and is complimented by a clean, focused and cool Norwegian aesthetic. As always the vinyl version is recommended, but not only to juice out that extra analogue warmness but also because it contains 4 extra tracks covering 33minutes. (KS)
