"Destroying walls between art-rock, avant-squonk, jazz-core and beyond, the decade-old New York quartet Gutbucket is not only equally comfortable playing in front of 900 sweatily pogo-ing teenage skate-punks, a crowd of cosmic indie-psych freaks, or on an anarchist German art collective's houseboat, but most importantly, their music fits right in. Called 'stomprovisors' by the Village Voice, the band has spent the past 10 years injecting a shot of exuberance into the minimalist cool of the New York downtown scene. The group attacks their music with the ferocity usually reserved for punk, and the humorous abstraction of art-rock, despite having earned their jazz bona fides. A Modest Proposal is Gutbucket's fourth album in a decade-long career. It solidifies their place at the forefront of a revitalized avant-garde music scene in New York. Their music is filled with layers of mature arrangements and a full-throttle blend of energy, chops, melody, intricacy and noise."
