Machine And The Synergetic Nuts - Leap Second Neutral (2005)

The second and final album from this band from Japan.

The band was a quartet with a lineup of percussion, drums, bass, keyboards and saxophones.

Two guests added guitars and percussion.

The jazz, fusion and zeuhl from Japan tends to be both wild and ferocious. This band's two albums confirms this. 

...Although the band has slightly slowed down from the violent onslaught of fast jazz their debut album gave us. An album not for the faint hearted and you can read my review somewhere else in this blog.

The jazz here had got some fusion and some zeuhl influences. The addition of guitars, included distorted guitars, has given their music a new dimention. 

The music on this one hour long album is still fast. It still have some nuances where the band sometimes slows down and adds some good melody lines.

The result is still a good album and one to check out. It is a crying shame that we only got two albums from this band. Both albums should be checked out.
