Check Track 3 on CD 1.

"With a new drummer on the bus, the Disco Biscuits are finally fueling up for
their second leg, but not before taking one last look through the scrapbook on
The Wind at Four to Fly. Recorded during what were then to be former drummer Sam
Altman's final shows, this double-live set buries the past in a time capsule and
looks to a changed future.

Though rightfully credited as the driving influence behind jamnation's
electro-groove makeover, the early Biscuits' material flies its phreak phlag
proudly on disc two. The goofy, stutter-step shimmy of "Pat and Dex" is more
riff-oriented than the band's recent work, and the genre mush of "Little Shimmy
in a Conga Line" and long, bassy intro to "Basis for a Day" wear their Phish
influences on their sleeves before heading to the club with a pocket full of
glowsticks and a head full of powerful pills.

Altman shines on "Voices Insane," fueling Marc Brownstein's menacing low-end and
propelling guitarist John Gutwilling through a steep climb before exploding into
the present. While the Biscuits still struggle to carry a tune, they've learned
to let their voices hang out, for better or worse. The aimless wandering on
"Caterpillar" doesn't help the ear-splitting vocals, but Brownstein and
keyboardist Aaron Magner's struggles add an eeriness to "Voices," and Gutwillig
has learned that a little emotional urgency can make up for technical
shortcomings.

Guitar licks float and bubble above the pop sweetness of "Story of the World,"
and the jammiest band shows a newfound restraint on "World is Spinning." And
though Gutwillig hooks the ear, it's the Biscuits' rhythm section that defines
them. The Wind at Four to Fly has its soft spots, and it honors Altman's
contribution to a journey that has been, while at times bumpy, always daring."
