Ever slam danced to jazz? This mercurial, avant-garde piece by Seabrook Power Plant might make you want to. Frontman and banjo player Brandon Seabrook leads a burst-out-of-the-gate attack with lightning fast strums akin to the schizophrenic gallop of a crazed horse. Accompanied by equally insane bass and drums, Seabrook pauses his musical gymnastics to break down the song free-jazz style before ramping up again. This track is a pupil-dilating rabble-rouser.
