The nexus between new music and avant improvisation conjoins and comes at us vibrantly on the LP release by EITR,Trees Have Cancer Too (Mazagran, Trem Azul 006). […] They give us nearly 40 minutes of soundscaping that is at times noisy, always eventful and with a kind of avant narrative structure that poeticizes and gives us an unworded story line for our ears. […] It is an original set of sounds well-paced. You have to hear it to get into its anatomy/structure, really. Words don’t do it justice. The whole thing is quite out there and quite good. Thank you again, oh Portuguese music-makers. Here’s another goodie. (Gapplegate Music Blog)
