Great Album - Highly Recommended

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This album continues to push what brass bands are capable of. If you are a fan of music, please check this out.



Their website still has most of this album to listen to, check it out:

Right off the bat, "March" hits you with more energy than one should be able to handle. A quick build into screaming trumpets sets the tone for the album. A bit of instrumental, a bit of poetic lyrics, all great.



"Nuclear Summer" brings a great mix of feel, musicality and fun. This is my favorite tune on the album. The emotion coming from the emcee is clear and passionate, and the band follows suit. The ability of the band is realized here.



"Waiver" lets the listener relax for a minute after two high energy openers. The trumpets are very dissonant, yet somehow pull it off very well. The intonation and control they have make it work well and they add perfect atmosphere. A great tune to hear the sax player's chops.



The rest of the album is a great balance of standard brass band energy mixed with the innovative writing of the YBB. "Is That A Riot" seems a bit like a try at another "Brooklyn," however that is the only down point of the album. It is a great tune, nonetheless.
