Kneebody: Low Electrical Worker

Read "Low Electrical Worker" reviewed by Ivana Ng


Kneebody's second full-length album starts off with an aggressive dose of jazz and industrial rock on “Poton." Drummer Nate Wood's slow, deliberate rhythm is irresistible, bordering on obnoxious, and tenor saxophonist Ben Wendel's improvising skills are well-suited to the quintet's combination of pop sensibility, jazz meditation and rock ferocity. A wave of sounds--trumpet, effects, Fender Rhodes, ...
