Album Review: Kilter- Axiom

A deadly virus is inciting global panic, stock markets are in free fall and impending elections are problematic.  Only the most extreme sounds suffice in this perilous moment.  Kilter fuses the two of the most detested forms of music- doom metal and free jazz- on Axiom.  Naturally, I’m all about it.  The racket made by the New York trio on tracks including “Behind Your Door” and “Spherical Bastards” reflect the deeply troubled tenor of the times.
