Thrashy drums duelling with the lute – yes, this is fearless improvisation from Cretan lute player George Xylouris and former Dirty Three drummer Jim White. Their compelling music pulls away from pure tradition, yet retains familiar, folky roots. Fluid, experimental and majestic, it sounds like post-punk from the Middle Ages; dark and abstract one moment, joyous and rocking the next.
