Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * *

The collective, whether by design or by fortune, is one that can achieve so much more than the individual; together and pulling in the same direction humanity can be seen as outstanding, of placing any slight difference aside and putting the sound ahead of the note. It is in the collective endeavour that makes the ensemble look and feel cohesive and beautiful.

Pure Phase Ensemble 4 takes the songs off the recording Live at SpaceFest! and gives it the edge of perfect madness, of alluding to magnificence and the never ending search for something greater than the individual, anything larger and grandiose, splendid and interesting than a single personal objection can raise.
