Read "Undrilling the Hole" reviewed by Lawrence Peryer

For nearly two decades, they have forged original music from seemingly incompatible elements--mathematical structures, punk aggression, free jazz fire. Their ninth album, Undrilling the Hole, presents seven new compositions from alto saxophonist Tobias Klein that showcase the band's ...

Moers Festival Interviews: Spinifex

Read "Moers Festival Interviews: Spinifex" reviewed by Martin Longley


Spinifex will make an extremely welcome return to the Moers Festival in early June 2022. This heavily international group specialises in a collective meshing, combining the precision of composed themes with ample leeway for crashing over the barriers, splattering down onto a grassy field of wild improvisatory freedom.
