Tomas Fujiwara - Drums, Mary Halvorson - Guitar, Michael Formanek - Double Bass and Electric Bass.Currently one of the most exciting and active groups in boundary-pushing jazz, is the collective trio Thumbscrew, who release their sixth album in seven years with Never Is Enough. Constantly taking the simple, 'guitar trio' line-up into new territories, their music is a masterclass of musical interplay and focused forward momentum. Vinyl is gatefold sleeve. The vinyl release of this album includes an otherwise unavailable 'bonus fourth side', which presents a 20' mini-concert of four live tracks! This bonus is only on the vinyl; it is not part of digital sales.[Their releases] perfectly encapsulate the rare chemistry that these players have found together, and the musical conflagrations that can emerge when artists find likeminded souls with whom to collaborate. - DownBeat.Three top avant jazzers with decades of experience among them create a distinctive band identity...contributing equally sans grandstanding... - AllMusic.
