Description/Reviews: 
The October Equus Quartet is a fractalization of the original band, showing a sound not so 'chamber rock' and more oriented toward a kind of 'avant-jazz-rock'. On 'Isla Purgatorio' the compositions are conveniently dark and complex but there is a bigger tendency to improvisation than in October Equus. Echoes of the 80's New York downtown scene like Zorn, Curlew, Dr. Nerve, or even some Zeuhl flavour here and there. (clear-spot.nl)
