VINYL FORMAT. GSL is extremely proud to announce the debut U.S. release from Oslo, Norway's critically acclaimed JAGA JAZZIST. The band's sound is a minefield of contrasting textures and styles; comparisons include Miles Davis, Squarepusher, Tortoise, Talk Talk, and Kid 606. The 10-piece group's members span their domestic music scene, and they have performed with, and/or been part of, virtually every notable contemporary Norwegian band. With this release, Jaga Jazzist seem on the brink of breaking open to a massive audience. " Animal Chin" is a 30-minute, seven-track collection of material from "Hush" (three tracks), the "Airborne" EP (two tracks), and a couple of unreleased remixes -- sort of a crash course in the Jaga modus operandi. Sleeve art is by Martin Horntveth, creator of the striking digitized images adorning the previous Jaga Jazzist releases.
