All About Jazz[3]

All About Jazz critic John Kelman observed, "What makes Boom remarkable and, ultimately, strangely appealing, is its combination of a freer sensibility with a rhythmic approach that usually maintains something resembling established time ... A thrilling combination of the oblique and the clearly-stated, Boom is another fine offering from Pavone, who continues to move the tradition forward with every record".[2] On the same site Sean Patrick Fitzell said "The quartet deftly navigates Pavone's charts with tightly knit, rhythmically charged ensemble heads and spacious solo sections".[3] In JazzTimes Ron Wynn wrote "Those expecting an exclusively outside session from Mario Pavone might be surprised by the thematic diversity on Boom ... If anything, Boom is among the most melodically delightful, musically proficient works issued on the Playscape label, and much of it wouldn't ruffle the feathers of the most rigid hard-bopper".[4]
