THE HUB Trucker  (Innova 2003)

  The hub is an amazing trio, this is their third album, I would give them 5 stars only if the recording quality would be better. but the music itself is fascinating. they mix all kinds of styles into one energetic fusion, on one heand you have Naked City style cut&paste technique, they jump across different styles, you have Ruins-like power rock, Mailt Banana hardcore stuff, with amazing Tim Dahl on bass, on the other hand you have lyrical passages like those from Charles Ives songs. And it's all original, they don't copy those artists, buy they have created their own blend of styles. But THEHUB can't not only mix compositions styles, but the way they perform music is really impressive. the hub is a band to see live, he is excellent performer, tim's bass technique is too fast to be observed , dan's sax playing fits perfectly between two with more melody and balanced playing. the hub is a huge hope for the future, i want to see them live and hear their progress in terms of composing.
