"Djam Karet were established in 1984, and by the late 1980's had established themselves as one of the US's most important instrumental progressive rock ensembles. Compared by the press with King Crimson, Pink Floyd, the Grateful Dead, Ozric Tentacles and Porcupine Tree, they are credited with breathing new life into progressive rock. Their music is a unique and exciting blend of heavy guitar rock, jam-band excitement and ambient/electronic soundscapes. A Night For Baku is a journey through Djam Karet's musical universe, an immersion in its aural dreams. This finds Djam Karet utilizing more keyboards and electronics than in the recent past, and collaborating on one track with electronic musician Steve Roach."

"Recorded in California at the turn of the millennium -- a time when severe power crises overshadowed the Sunshine State and Silicon Valley -- New Dark Age is the band's 11th release, and is the band's first studio release of new material almost five years. It showcases the band's unique signature sound, combining a heavy rock foundation with spacier elements derived from the 'ambient' & 'trance' schools. New Dark Age showcases how Djam Karet's signature sound has evolved after over 15 years of playing together. Interweaving elements from the hard rock/progressive and ambient/trance schools, Djam Karet has created a progressive rock that remains outside of one stylistic time -- a true 'classic' progressive sound."

"In September, 1998, Djam Karet were invited to play their 1st ever East Coast shows, during a two night stand at Baltimore's Orion Sound Studios. The shows were recorded, & this excellent sounding release is the result. The vital playing of Djam Karet's instrumental dual guitar, bass and drums instrumental attack is perfectly captured here, & the performances are really exemplary, capturing a band at their absolute peak! Released on the band's 15th anniversary, this is an excellent summation of their work, & a perfect introduction to the band."
