“Aziola Cry’s new album Dysphoria Ritual is absolutely killer. It’s a band that thrives on tension, momentum, and surprise. The Chicago progressive instrumental trio packs an impressive amount of detail into its compositions, all while the album unfolds with a sense of momentum and clarity across a constantly evolving landscape.

A large part of the album's appeal lies in the chemistry between the players. Jason Blake's Warr Guitar provides both low-end gravitas and melodic elasticity, Mike Milaniak's guitar work moves fluidly between intricate riffs and textured atmospherics, and Tommy Murray's drumming anchors everything with power and finesse.”
