Doubt

Never Pet a Burning Dog Doubt

A new power electric jazz trio consisting of keyboardist Alex Maguire, guitarist Michel Deville and drummer Tony Bianco, Doubt combines the energy of rock, the spirit of free-jazz and the lyricism of the post-Canterbury Nu-Jazz. The results of their combined efforts amounts to a intriguing and monumental album, full of unexpected twists and turns and yet driven by a common force that draws as readily from Tony Williams as from post-punk aesthetics. The sheer body of sound produced by the trio is amazing in it's intensity and magnitude. As for the state of collaboration, cooperation and complicity between the members of the group, it packs a shock, especially if one knows that this CD consists exclusively of first takes recorded live in the studio.
