Treeline

Higher than 71% of albums we've rated

Boot! showcases inventive compositions and strong performances, though its cohesion is uneven.

What we noticed

• — The album opens with a rapid tempo in 'India', setting an energetic tone that persists through the first half.
• — Tracks often feature abrupt transitions between sections, reflecting a spontaneous and improvisational approach.
• — The final track, 'Epilog', serves as a quiet denouement, contrasting sharply with the frenetic energy of earlier pieces.
