Our Take

TIGER HATCHERY's latest offering, "Breathing In The Walls," is a frenetic journey through the noisy, experimental realm of avant-garde jazz. The Chicago-based trio, comprised of Andrew Scott Young on saxophone, Ben Billington on drums, and Mike Forbes on bass, serve up a cacophonous blend of free improvisation and controlled chaos that is sure to leave listeners simultaneously exhilarated and disoriented.

From the opening track, "Gutter Glitter," the album grabs you by the ears and doesn't let go. Young's screeching saxophone wails and moans in a way that is both hypnotic and unnerving, while Billington's thunderous drumming provides a solid backbone for the freeform madness unleashed by Forbes' frenetic bass lines.

Tracks like "Static Shock" and "Echo Chamber" showcase Tiger Hatchery's ability to push the boundaries of traditional jazz structures, with extended improvisational sections that veer dangerously close to the edge of total sonic collapse. The result is a thrilling, visceral listening experience that is as unpredictable as it is captivating.

While "Breathing In The Walls" may not be for the faint of heart, for those willing to take the plunge into Tiger Hatchery's wild and unpredictable world, the rewards are plentiful. This is music that demands your attention, challenges your preconceptions, and ultimately leaves you breathless and exhilarated. Tiger Hatchery may not be for everyone, but for those brave enough to venture into their sonic wilderness, the journey is one well worth taking.
