In "Tiny Resistors," Sickafoose has created a musical document that weds the indie-rock aesthetic to jazz practices with seamless pleasure. Pop advantages such as genial melody and rich texture abound. But at the same time the long-form compositions are challenging and give the players chances to improvise with personality. This new disc is a statement of purpose and a call to young listeners. Come ye young people and dig some jazz! It's the real thing: true independent music, with daring and rhythm and guts and melody. -by Will Layman
