Album Notes

NOOK is a Brooklyn-based band that got it's name from playing their first show in a tiny record store in Greenpoint. They have since gone on to play at larger nooks around New York and have released their debut album "Captain Momentum (Himself)."
NOOK's sound draws from the diverse musical landscape of New York, especially the vibrant music scene in Brooklyn, and the wide-ranging playing experience of the musicians in the band. NOOK freely makes use of experimental rock, balkan music, free improvisation, funk, atmospheric and ambient noise, and tightly structured composition.
NOOK seeks to make creative and original music that is also accessible and fun and appeals to a non-jazz/experimental music audience.

The first track "Bring Your Sick" is a perfect backdrop for the changeable, confusion-ridden era we face today. It's jerky and catchy, and can fit many moods. "Rats" is an enjoyably sinister march. More tender moments can be found in tracks 8 and 10. This album was a treat, demonstrating clear musical talent and compositional nuances that fans of progressive rock and jazz will appreciate.
