Skronk! I've heard bits of the Jooklo folks before and I've always found 'em reasonably entertaining. This is their first ever 7" so if you fancy a bite size chunk of 'em now's your chance. Here they skronk their way through two whole sides of 7" vinyl with the most screechy sax I've heard in ages. It's completely insane this one... A massive skronkfest if I say so myself. The sax is the screechiest thing I've heard in ages and if you're not a fan of high pitched screechy sax then I'd stay well clear. Mental freeform drumming and mental sax all wrapped in two slices of intense freeform fun. It's not doing my hangover any good at all!
Since Albert Ayler stalked the hamnar of Stockholm and reverberated his fire music off the walls of LES tenements has there been an avant-garde jazz saxophonist who can all out wail like Virginia Genta can. Don’t let her calm presence fool you. Nor should David Vanzan’s taller stature lead to believe this is not an equal opportunity free jazz freak-out. From when their poles first were converged by the Cosmic Force in 1999, Italy’s (with Finnish godparents) Jooklo Duo has been winning hearts and brains worldwide through jaw-dropping performances and a series of limited edition releases keeping at bay ravenous fans only long enough to get to the next gig. Now, for their first U.S. release, Northern-Spy Records launches its own assault on an as yet unsuspecting public with the 7”, The Warrior. Recorded October 11th, 2010, at Troglosound Home Studio, it’s as compact and complex as a leather-bound book of esoterica ready to haul you off to the most hidden lands of universal energy. The kids are gonna love it. side 1 is "Primitive Power" side 2 is "Fire Liberation" ...the holy ghosts of ESP-Disk' and BYG/Actuel live in Jooklo's sound, style, and unrepentant forward thrust, a stop-and-you-may-die kind of spiritual commitment to this music and lifestyle. - Scott McDowell, WFMU
