Stick Men is comprised of Pat Mastelotto (King Crimson) on acoustic drums and electronic percussion, Tony Levin (King Crimson) on Chapman Stick, and Markus Reuter on Touch Guitar. The recording is a departure from the previous two of the band (Soup and Absalom) - it is all improvised, though based on prepared themes by the band. Improvisation is an important part of the band's live shows, and this is the first time they've focused on that aspect for a CD release. Anyone who has heard anything from Stick Men's hundreds of shows worldwide will know what to expect here.
