Our Take

Buckle up, folks, because the latest offering from Vandermark, Wooley, Courvoisier, and Rainey is a wild ride through the noise of our time. This album is like a sonic rollercoaster, taking you on twists and turns you never saw coming.

From the first track to the last, the energy is infectious and the musicianship is top-notch. Vandermark's saxophone skills are on full display, with each note hitting like a punch to the gut. Wooley's trumpet adds a touch of whimsy, while Courvoisier's piano playing is nothing short of spellbinding. And let's not forget about Rainey's drumming, which ties everything together with a tight precision.

The beauty of Noise Of Our Time lies in its unpredictability. Just when you think you've got a handle on where the music is going, it veers off in a completely different direction. It's like trying to catch a butterfly with a net - you never know which way it's going to flutter next.

So grab a pair of headphones, turn up the volume, and let yourself get lost in the chaos of this album. Trust me, it's a journey you won't soon forget. Noise Of Our Time is a cacophony of sound that somehow manages to make perfect sense - a true masterpiece of avant-garde music.
