"Moving through disparate meters, genres, and modulations with well-oiled sophistication, Kneebody upends jazz convention, morphing funk, jazz, dance, electronic, chamber, and everything in between. At the root of their sound sit the profound drums of Nate Wood. To hear him live is to understand the genesis of this multi-headed organism that rolls funky drums below and surreal melodic bursts above ... Kneebody works the zone between texture and intent as only they can. A consistently weird, obscure, but ultimately inspiring message lifts their music-the sound of a world running down, with stellar sonics and catchy melodies for all".

"There's little doubt that these four are musicians playing at the top of their game, interlocking with a telepathic connectivity that only comes to a band that's played together for almost two decades. Yet, for all the ensemble's virtuosity, Chapters is a fragmented and overly complicated listening experience. And while the movement among genres has come to characterize the group, on this record it seems as if the band's just trying to pack too much into a small space".
