sgt. bring their noise, emo, jazz and improv infused cinematic soundscapes back for their second mini album. This instrumental band melds a violin seamlessly into the thought evoking music into 42 minutes of bliss. It has only been a year since their last release, Stylus Fantasticus which was rated as one of the top 50 albums in 2008 by The Silent Ballet as well as the top 50 album list of 2008 from ZB's A-Z of J-Music. Their second mini-album capital of gravity is aptly titled as there is definitely a heavenly force of the likes of gravity which is pulling this band further into their musical groove. This could be due to the band returning to a 4 person lineup creating a new marketplace for original and creative ideas unleashing the potential masterpiece that was previously a brewing latency.

Not only has capital of gravity brought back their four member lineup, but it also is graced by multiple guest musicians such as Keisaku Nakamura (from kowloon and stim)(track 4 and 5) as well as the saxophonist Nobuo Ootani (track 5) who is a famous writer. This mini-album also features a rearranged version of "Ginga no Shasou kara" by Tyme (Tatsuya Yamada) which appeared on their first mini album in 2005. This song is a spaced out version of the original that adds another layer of freshness to this album. The cover artwork was done by mitchel who produces music videos for RUMI, TamakiROY, etc.

The album reverberates with amazing and powerful sounds which make this one of the most artistically crafted instrumental albums of 2009. sgt. simply has the artistic audacity and fine sense to produce another breathtaking release. Like their previous album, capital of gravity is also a HearJapan Hot Pick! Not only that, but Japanator recommends this album.
