Words by Kevin Hahn I never know what to expect when a local jamband puts out an album… especially an all-instrumental album. I tend to stay away from most of them, as I fear my love for a local band’s live shows might be overtaken by my disdain for their studio work. However, this is not the case with 2 Fat 2 Skydive’s most recent release, Massive . 2 Fat 2 Skydive takes influences from their favorite acts in the jamband world (Lotus, STS9, Umphrey’s McGee, moe., the Disco Biscuits, etc), creates their own sound and forms their own path. If you are looking for chill/relaxed jams that seem to fit perfectly on a long car ride you are definitely in the right place. If you are looking for a dance party throw on “Linoleum Freeways”, or some STS9-y vibes look no further than “Frozen.” From the spacey/weird title track “Massive,” to the harder/more metal riff influenced “Dragonfly,” this all-instrumental album (other than the lead track having a small voiceover) is a great accompaniment
