The space opened up by the trio setting allows the musicians to breathe and give their considerable instrumental powers full expression. The breadth of styles the music encompass also came to the surface in loose arrangements, with jazz, Weimar cabaret, Debbusyesque impressionism, sunshine pop harmonies, Canterbury prog, experimental soundmaking and even church music integrated into a seamless, natural and singular whole. - Jez Winship
