https://thequietus.com/articles/29745-icp-septet-vijay-iyer-charles-lloyd-jazz-review The second album from what might be the most exciting piano trio today raises
the stakes from its bracing eponymous 2018 debut. Pianist Kaja Draksler,
bassist Petter Eldh, and drummer Christian Lillinger proceed with clockwork
exactitude on material that perpetually teeters on the edge of an
abyss. Rhythms splinter and fracture, forging uneasy alliances with melodies
that seem to mock the polyrhythmic, post-hip hop propulsion. The simple
repeating piano melody of Eldh’s 'Natt Raum' — played, like everything here, on
an upright — sails along gleefully impervious to the way the wildly careening
groove seeks to practically crush it, while Draksler’s sparkling tones on
'Vrvica' use their own splattery logic against the roiling grooves of her
partners. One of the year’s best, no doubt.
