It's as hard to write about 6 parts 7 as it is easy to listen to them. I think of Wagner: "Music is the art of transition," Gertrude Stein (on her collaborator Virgil Thomson) that "underneath his music is special and strange but he puts a layer of banal sounds on top to put people off," and Duke Ellington's favorite term of praise, "beyond category." This album is their most complex yet, with a vibraphone prominent in most of the cuts--not the usual sound for a pop album. And what's more unusual (though familiar to fans) is that the long, slowly-transforming instrumentals move through time in a way much closer to classical music than to pop. Yet the sensiblity is not classical at all.

I found the structure of the pieces hard to grasp at first, and (as always with this band) I found myself wondering at first just how much substance there was to it. But that's because the substance isn't in the usual places--sudden modulations, odd chords, melodic surprises. I also found myself unable to stop listening. This album stayed in my car's CD player for weeks until I could commit the pieces to memory. Like all really important and worthwhile art, 6 parts 7's best music demands to be approached on its own terms. And every cut on this album is among their best.

This is the very first cd I bought and from the first slow and soothing, beautifully melodic song I fell in love with them.

There sound is clean guitars with no extortion, magically connected with great bass and soft drums which make them a one-of-a-kind no lyric band.

I strongly reccommend all of there music

These two amazing brothers are talented and it shows with every instrument they pick up and play. I am a writer, so I use their music as a means of escape and to set the atmosphere of what my current project will be.

They love what they do. and it shows. From the title of their music, to the very chord.
