"Few bands are as primed to capture their ecstatic live energy in masterful sonic detail like
Terry Gross
. Composed of three renowned engineer/producers (recording artists like
Wooden Shjips
,
Moon Duo
,
Earthless
,
Big Business
, and more) whose studio doubles as their jam spot and communal gathering place, the trio's penchant for longform psychedelic escapades is able to be recorded with granular precision. The potency of the fellowship formed by drummer
Phil Becker
(
Lower Forty-Eight
,
Peace Creeps
,
Pins of Light
), bassist
Donny Newenhouse
, and guitarist
Phil Manley
(
Trans Am
,
Oneida
,
Life Coach
) lies in their ability to utilize their prowess as both players and record engineers to translate feeling with immaculate clarity. On
Huge Improvement
, Terry Gross embody a complex web of emotion with songs as ferocious and precise as they are agile and care-free, delighting in the catharsis of excising tension alongside one's most trusted peers.
Huge Improvement
's tongue-in-cheek title is rightfully earned. Like their debut
Soft Opening
, the pieces on Huge Improvement began as improvised studio jam sessions without expectations. The trio's ability to plug in, play and have each experiment thoroughly documented opens up unparalleled avenues for further exploration and honing. The four mammoth slabs that make up
Huge Improvement
are driving, unrelenting excursions into the unknown. Whether burning white-hot or smoldering in plumes of smoke, the pieces stretch as much inwardly as they do cosmically, embracing every surprising turn. Terry Gross's
Huge Improvement
morphs the trio's search for communal connection and reprieve into a transcendent respite, a burst of focused energy to be enveloped in while facing the senselessness around us with a smile."
"...this isn't tribute-band trash; part of Manley's skill is in hauling new feeling out of well-trodden ideas."
