�1997 ONOFFON Publishing

"Babasin is nothing less than a virtuoso on bass, while Lake's guitar is tensive and spacy, making many of the songs, even those with lyrics, sound mysterious. Dave Goode's drumming builds a tricky and complicated foundation for the music that can be either heavy or dexterous, but is never less than interesting. Surrender Now never stops short of surprising or delighting the listener who is willing to give the music the effort it deserves."

- All Music Guide

"It's rare that you find the potentially mainstream popular music within the home of convincingly accomplished musicians - but we do here if only someone would take action. . . We surrender, and all illusions of mainstream music go by the way-side as this gathering of music masters and off-the-wall creativity play with our ears. The title track Surrender Now, is a heavy jazz based groover with lush and huge vocal layers, mp3'd here. They don't follow their own advise when they sing to "release perfection" - this is about as perfect as you'll find. Jazz/Funk/Folk/kitchen sink - Surrender Now is a gem."
