On Abstract Logic, the legendary Swedish bass virtuoso, compositional pioneer, and low-end innovator Jonas Hellborg joins forces with a towering, historically volcanic power trio alignment to deliver an absolute firestorm of an electric fusion document. Released by Hellborg's independent vanguard imprint Bardo Records, this monumental milestone stands as an exceptionally fluid, high-octane exhibit of improvisational mastery, capturing a rare and telepathic studio alignment alongside legendary guitar speed-wizard Shawn Lane and drum powerhouse Kofi Baker. Spanning nearly an hour of immaculate high-fidelity spatial design, the 9-track landscape operates with an intense, lightning-fast, and beautifully volatile kinetic energy. The trio shatters structural boundaries with absolute uninhibited velocity, seamlessly welding scorching jazz-rock geometry, complex math-rock syncopations, and heavy, blues-drenched fusion grooves—firing off spectacular landmarks like the crushing, deep-grooving opener Serpents and Pigs, the hyper-complex metric maze of the title track Abstract Logic, and the blisteringly fast, explosive interplay of Throwing Elephant And Wrestling. Driven by Hellborg's thunderous, slap-and-pop chordal bass layouts, Lane's blinding right-hand speed and shards-of-light electric guitar fire, and Baker's explosive, polyrhythmic drum telemetry, this pristine independent archive remains an indispensable masterpiece for serious fusion purists and progressive guitar collectors worldwide.
