Edward Vesala and Sound & Fury - Invisible Storm (1992)

More hot sounds from ECM in the Krakatau vein. Vesala's ensemble Sound & Fury offers alternating doses of sizzling Euro-fusion and more traditionally minded numbers during the full reign of INVISIBLE STORM. "Gordion's Flashes" erupts with mad symphony of horns, keyboards, and drums, suggesting Bill Bruford's Earthworks and even John Zorn's more lucid moments. And then--suddenly, unexpectedly-- there's the soft, Isham-like ruminations of "Shadows on the Frontier."
