Lung, the highly anticipated new composition from Brooklyn’s genre-defying Little Women, is an epic without precedent. Where their astonishing and critically acclaimed 2010 suite Throat grabbed listeners by their necks from the first seconds, Lung arises slowly from silence to embrace and entrance. Tenor saxophonist Travis Laplante, alto saxophonist Darius Jones, guitarist Andrew Smiley, and drummer Jason Nazary collectively composed and refined this piece over more than a year. It is a collaborative work at the purest level, and is by far their most dynamic work to date. “Staggering. It has structure and elegance in a tornado of noise, and beauty that cuts through the maelstrom like a ray of light.” — CHICAGO TRIBUNE
“Little Women toggle between extremes with impressive fluidity, and the transitions consistently make sense.” — CHICAGO READER “Little Women make blistering horns vs. guitar music that blazes past the crossroads of jazz and rock to raise dust on the scenic routes of metal and noise.” — IMPOSE
