The penetrating quartet of Beans, Priest, Shipp and Parker synthesizes a newly realized form of hip-hop and jazz. The album combines Shipp and Parker's most ardent and agonizing playing with Antipop's most vehement and expressive rap. It embodies the "nuances of improvisation" by paying homage to the spirit of "musical forbearers while [also] pushing forward" (Priest). "Knives From Heaven" is invigorating, mind-bending and totally transformative.
