"A double album in seven parts ranging from free-flowing sound collage to futurist bop to circular Kraut rock workouts, it's about mathematics, geometry and asymmetry in the 12th century. Consider M.C.Escher and Miles Davis recording Trout Mask Replica on a farm near Blackburn, Lancashire and you're part way there. In this day and age where the lines between genres get more and more blurred and bands like the Animal Collective, Broadcast, The Black Dice and Devendra Banhart are removing the bifocals to help smudge the cutting edge, The Welcome Table fits in snugly -- take for example the epic, hypnotic 24 minute opener 'The First League Of Angels.' Nothing could set the tone better for the sort of cosmic rock that the group specialize in, rhythm and blues stretched out till it becomes abstract, a place where the beats are live but locked and the harpist is old enough to draw his pension."
