"The trio of Pieters, Russell, Stapleton is well known to listeners who recognize & understand a good thing when they hear it. Their two CDs, Last Glass (Corpus Hermeticum 007), and Sex/Machine (Metonymic 005), are powerful extensions of free music improvisation, taking the shake of the unknown well past the barriers of all suspected tongues. The a-side of this 33rpm 7" is a palate-forcing distender of their previous work, making blocks of concrete shimmer w/ a force that seems almost entirely natural. The b-side, on which the three are joined by Bruce's son, Max, is another kettle of gawp. Not since the early days of papa Russell's Dead C, has NZ structure been so gorgeously deformed. In a sense, this track resembles nothing so much as the first punch thrown in the battle to give No Wave shenanigans a place at the Kiwi table. Yow."
