[...]

Boot! opens with an allegedly sacrilegious version of John Coltrane's "India"
that becomes sacred. With Gustafsson blasting overblown notes from his baritone
saxophone, the Indian Vedic chants and religious music Coltrane modeled his
Indian drone sound from is infused with the electric of Håker Flaten's
plugged-in bass and Nilssen-Love's drumming that is more Keith Moon than Elvin
Jones. Trane's rapture is duplicated in a punk-garage euphoria.

Coltrane's music is also hinted at with the title track. The slow burn of
"Boot!" finds tenor saxophone tracking the Håker Flaten's bass guitar, which is
applied as more guitar than bass, to resemble "Psalm" from A Love Supreme
(Impulse!, 1965). Elsewhere, they remake Duke Ellington's "Heaven" into a
slow-burning ballad with a churning undertone of pounding drums and thunderous
bass. "Red River" draws from the heavy blues rock of Black Sabbath, fusing rock
and free jazz into a liberating energy of sound.

These three musicians are, to be sure, rock stars. Ones that can also make Duke
and Coltrane smile.
