The live stuff (CD2 'The Ghost Mills') onward is pretty damn excellent. While bringing up the styles reminiscent of all of our favorite jazz fusion bands of old and present, they add their own very original ingredients that makes them fresh and original. In a genre that finds a lot of similar bands PAKT will always leave you guessing and way more times than not, with a grin above your chin. peace [ps- live concert CD options?]

Another stellar release from this long-lived ensemble. Though the King Crimson influence is obvious & that comparison unavoidable, these guys have made many great recordings that can't be categorized as 'mere copies'. The perfect balance of aggressive riffing and serene soundscapes.
