I've got a terrible, dirty secret.... I don't like jazz. As far as western music is concerned, it's the only major genre that I haven't yet "cracked." For some reason, I never found the band or artist that I could listen to long enough to temper my ear, to give me the ability to read other jazz artists.
That may have changed. Soil & "Pimp" Sessions (I don't know what that means either) is a group of Japanese kids who play fast and tight, using considerable melodic and harmonic dissonance without losing a sense of tunefulness. I wish I could provide a more apt description, but as I said, Jazz is a new world to me. All I know is that this is a badass album.
