about ETTRICK (san fran) -
"...a bludgeoning amalgam of black metal and skronk sure to summon the apocalypse... an excruciating free jazz that feels like being trapped in a metal shed during a thunderstorm." -- San Francisco Bay Guardian
"With all the squawks, rasps, and synapse-smacking harmonics of John Zorn and Albert Ayler, the San Francisco duo Ettrick wields saxophones like some kind of pan-dimensional alarm clocks—or, at the very least, malfunctioning dentist's drills. But like the best free jazz, there's a deep intuition and discipline at work within the band's music... To top it all off, the twosome splices bits of Orthrelm-level metal into the frenetic jazz..." -- The Onion AV Club (Boulder/Denver)
"...bone-shattering, ego-melting music... shifts just as quickly into eerie bouts of beauty and sadness before dive-bombing back into the lake of burning blood." -- Foxy Digitalis
