All Music Guide Review

A piano-less quintet of three horns with bass and drums might appear a bit odd, but this group makes it seem so natural. From the starting gate, these fellows burn through a fine mix, consisting of six attractive contributions by Kohlhase, one by the often forgotten Elmo Hope, and another by long-missed Julius Hemphill. Kohlhase an aggressive, though sometimes tongue-in-cheek quality to his playing, but he rips through the chords with finesse and vigor. Trumpeter John Carlson is an effective foil, with a big fat tone that maneuvers vertically with abandon. Matt Wilson, on drums, is another standout, driving the band to near delirium. In the end, it is the offbeat compositions and arrangements, the unmitigated drive, and the solid improvising that separate this one from the pack. ~ Steve Loewy, All Music Guide
