Album Description"Crime in Choir's The Hoop serves up more of the band's fascinating instrumental music, which draws from math rock, prog, pop, and jazz influences. However, this cut-and-dried description doesn't do justice to the power of Crime in Choir's music, which is aggressive and beautiful, fast-moving but hypnotic, and evocative and tightly wound at the same time. Crime in Choir's fondness for intricate keyboards definitely has its roots in prog rock, but in the band's hands, they give the music its own uniquely dark sparkle. Delivering on the promise of their self-titled debut, the amount of passion and precision the band packs into each track of The Hoop is truly awe inspiring." All Music Guide
