A distance of five years since he published his last studio album, the Norwegian collective Jaga Jazzist just returned with another anthology along their backs. One-Armed Bandit is opera through which Jaga Jazzist aims to provide new and multiple forms to all the benefits and displayed in What We Must , so you should tip more fully to be explored .. .
As is well known, Jaga Jazzist those brought from its principles the habit of showing new edges each time you take to the streets for a job, why, and with fifteen years of existence, it is believed that still have not lost the knack, for his new release is no exception. In this respect, months before the actual Horntveth Lars, one of the heads of training, had reported that One-Armed Bandit would appear like a cross between Richard Wagner and they were Fela Cuti , that which not a few began to stray aiming to elucidate how such a link might sound unprecedented in the annals of music. Unlike
What We Must , in One-Armed Bandit show a marked departure from the post-rock so well that had exhibited, and this can be seen in the fact that the guitars are no longer in the foreground but rationalizing small appearances efectivitas throughout the entire album, giving rise to the academic section acquires greater significance. And, although both the jazz background with two batteries based on synchronous and exquisite orchestrations are ubiquitous as before, it is clear that the latter have been brought to its fullest, and in a manner that at times resemble gain center stage. However, as it is evident that a priori not show significant changes with regard to the structures of the compositions, and therefore must ask: at what time the artist was referring to talk of a cross between Wagner and Cuti ?

Horntveth no trace of a man tried to be pompous or just interesting with his sentence, but put back-the crux of the issue clearly and concisely. Jaga Jazzist has collected Wagnerian drama and rhythmic exuberance Cuti in one album, laying it all on his own imprint avant-garde. The huge orchestrations, that most of often seem to me like that retro bands of old movies will sound police realize a dramatic counterpoint rich in nuances and idiosyncrasies of all, the rhythm sections and the abundance of jazz and funk, thrilling crave the same as those that derive Fela Cuti, and the rest unfolds itself with the addition of the various flashes offered by synthesizers and other hints for the electronic programming than ordinarily tend to complete the works of Jaga Jazzist . Thus, combining his personal vision with inspiration provided by the immortals Wagner and Cuti, this sort of contemporary big band has acted as a synergy between sounds at first unrelated, which only from their deft hands became in the form of a new and unique representation. Through this subtle twist, the Norwegians show once again why the project carried out fifteen years ago is still considered one of the most revealing of recent times, as the years pass and Jaga Jazzist continues to deliver fresh material as if indeed his inspiration was endless. In short, let us leave aside my attempts to exalt retracted what nature has to stand by itself, it only remains to say that from the start, One-Armed Bandit should be available within the most wonderful albums of 2010, even beyond the always inadequate and the perpetual cloud disparity of taste ...
