He isn't; he's breaking down preconceived notions of harmony, melody, rhythm, and sound itself - and the effort can be as exhilarating as the results." ~ FRANCIS DAVIS, VILLAGE VOICE 2006 "Eisenbeil's prophetic voice comes like a streak of light out of nowhere surprising us with his range of intensity and extensive vocabulary of sounds that quickly develop into torrid dialogues with Evans and Robinson building into a fiercely collective conversation." ~ Jazz Improv Magazine, Winter 2007 Record Label: ESP, NEMU, Konnex, CIMP, Cadence, Nine Winds Type of Label: Indie |
