"As abstractly hallucinatory as it may sound on disc (or wherever), expect material from the Tulsa keyboard trio's most recent album, Lil Tae Rides Again, to unfold gloriously onstage. Expectations, though, are hardly the stock in trade of keyboardist Brian Haas, guitarist Reed Mathis, and drummer Josh Raymer's intensely improvisatory head-fuckery, which embraces Beatles covers, free jazz and just about everything in between."--The Village Voice
"'Lil Tae Rides Again'Â bathes in electro-blackness, a blood-red island in a skewed fantasy. Gorgeous or beastly, it sticks to your shivering bones."--Under The Radar Magazine
"Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey step through the looking glass to emerge from the shadows of their disparate rock and jazz influences with something wholly fresh. Producer Tae Meyulks transforms these sessions into a sonic wonderland."--The Absolute Sound
"'Tether Ball Triumph' layers shimmering, overlapping melodic fragments over hushed drum 'n' bass rhythms. The eerie 'Santiago Lends a Hand' sounds like a lullaby for the post-apocalypse before ominous, lurching beats come to the fore. One of the few uptempo pieces here is the dub-tinged 'Discovering the Time Capsule,' where sweet, nostalgic accordion sighs waft through thick, metallic piano chords — imagine Tortoise in waltz mode."--SF Weekly
"...truly intoxicating."--East Bay Express
"....powerfully evocative, making the listening experience alternately trying and transcendent."--Bass Player Magazine
