Colin Stetson
's 2008 album
New History Warfare, Vol. 1
showcased the saxophonist/multi-reedist's phenomenal multiphonic improvisation style and circular breathing technique. Released in 2011,
New History Warfare, Vol. 2: Judges
features a similar exploratory solo saxophone approach that is nothing short of mind-blowing.
Stetson
uses the circular breathing style, recorded in single takes and occasionally with overdubs, to create atmospheric and hypnotic loops that sound like layered analog keyboards more than saxophones. In that sense, the tracks here often bring to mind something along the lines of
Jean Michel Jarre
crossed with
Roscoe Mitchell
. These tracks allow
to skronk and pulse, wheeze and then soar with white jet-engine noise that is never purposeless and always controlled. Also featured here are a few spoken word sections with avant-garde icon
Laurie Anderson
-- including the poetic
"A Dream of Water"
-- that lend a cinematic quality to the proceedings. Elsewhere, vocalist
Shara Worden
delivers a haunting lead on the spiritual
"Lord I Just Can't Keep from Crying Sometimes."
Primarily, however, it is
's transcendent and muscular ability to layer sound, breath, and rhythm in a meditative compositional style that sticks with you long after
Judges
is over. ~ Matt Collar
