Guitarist Eyal Maoz, bassist James Ilgenfritz and drummer Lukas Ligeti collide their multifarious interests into one another like a post-modern demolition derby, pulling from the wreckage a sound that is as intricate as it is aggressive.
The multi-faceted electric trio is collectively based in in Southern California and New York, and are preparing to record the follow-up to their self-titled debut CD, which was on Tzadik Records. Described as “A fierce unit specializing in a noise-bathed jazz/rock hybrid,” the trio has performed around the US, Europe, and Asia.
Their music combines avant-jazz, new music, No Wave, African and Israeli traditions, holding its opposing urges in an electrifying tension that is both melodic and deconstructive.
