"Ochs' full-bodied tenor is out of the John Coltrane/Albert Ayler 'free' tradition: forceful, passionate... talking-in-tongues."– East Bay Express
"A brilliant drummer/composer as comfortable leveling a straight-ahead ride cymbal groove as fulminating an avant-garde pulse" - Jazz Times
"Perkis' electronics give the proceedings a slightly sinister edge, an alien character completely different from what we are usually used to hear in jazz contexts." - Jazz Times
