Weasel Walter Quartet's 2008 Concert History

The music of the Weasel Walter Quartet harkens back to that of free jazz legends like Albert Ayler, Cecil Taylor, Masayuki Takayanagi and Peter Brotzmann - there is an emphasis on overt speed and violence while never losing sight of articulation and interplay. The group is interested in power, excitement and fury - the kind created by the dripping sweat and blood of its members’ manic performances. The quartet doesn’t dabble in rock or any other idiomatic cliches - the music is 100% abstract improvisation: dense, furious and modern.
