Allmusic[4]

The Allmusic review by Glenn Astarita stated "On this release, the trio is simply having a blast as they surge forward with the intensity of your average high-octane, heavy metal rock outfit. ... The trio engages in uninhibited dialogue in concert with ominous sounding undercurrents thanks to a rollicking and rolling presentation of pieces spanning bluesy, dirge-like progressions and turbulently executed exchanges. ... The musicians also provide the listener with softly enacted swing vamps along with some downright riotous interplay. Recommended!".[4]

Personnel
gollark: I have so many stupidly messy things I could breed a CB prize with.
gollark: Fun Things to Do With a CB Prize:- breed with random high-gen messy- breed with own children- randomly dump 2Gs in the AP or offer them on trades for low-value stuff- ND the 2Gs- give the 2Gs only to those who figure out the answer to a riddle
gollark: Well, at least ones on here.
gollark: Yes, there are viewbombers secretly watching our every message.
gollark: I kind of want a CB prize just to irritate people with what I do with its offspring.
