                ██▓   Given her diverse work with Anthony Braxton, Trevor  ▓██
                ██▓   Dunn and Mike Pride, her duos with Jessica Pavone    ▓██
                ██▓   and Kevin Shea and a number of other projects,       ▓██
                ██▓   guitarist Mary Halvorson might have gone any number  ▓██
                ██▓   of directions with her debut as a bandleader. Safe   ▓██
                ██▓   bet it would include some precise, proficient        ▓██
                ██▓   playing, probably some jagged edges and maybe some   ▓██
                ██▓   noise. But in the last few years Halvorson has       ▓██
                ██▓   shown there to be a number of tricks up her sleeve.  ▓██
                ██▓                                                        ▓██
                ██▓   With Dragon's Head, she seems to have decided to go  ▓██
                ██▓   all directions at once and quite tidily. She wrote   ▓██
                ██▓   the ten pieces on the disc specifically for the      ▓██
                ██▓   bandùJohn Hebert on bass and Ches Smith on           ▓██
                ██▓   drumsùand they rise well to what's been put before   ▓██
                ██▓   them. While some of her projects have leaned toward  ▓██
                ██▓   avant rock and sui generis song, Dragon's Head is    ▓██
                ██▓   an instrumental record of slippery jazz. The first   ▓██
                ██▓   track, "Old Nine Two Six For Two Dies (No. 10)"      ▓██
                ██▓   (showing her commitment to the band project, the     ▓██
                ██▓   tracks are numbered to show the order they were      ▓██
                ██▓   composed in) is the last piece she wrote for the     ▓██
                ██▓   album and jazziest cut on the disc, a laid back      ▓██
                ██▓   number with plenty of melody, her electric guitar    ▓██
                ██▓   almost pianistic at times. It serves not so much as  ▓██
                ██▓   a framework in its placement here but as a           ▓██
                ██▓   departure point for the rest of the record.          ▓██
                ██▓                                                        ▓██
                ██▓   The disc quickly nosedives (quite gloriously) into   ▓██
                ██▓   rockier glades. The second track introduces her      ▓██
                ██▓   deft use of effects, heavy distortion and rubbery    ▓██
                ██▓   pitch-shifting. The rest of the album is dedicated   ▓██
                ██▓   to charting the grounds between: extreme layering    ▓██
                ██▓   of tempos; unison passages that pound a different    ▓██
                ██▓   punk-prog than has been heard before and             ▓██
                ██▓   unaccompanied solos (by all three) that challenge    ▓██
                ██▓   as much as the composed segments do. But remarkably  ▓██
                ██▓   Dragon's Head never feels de-contextualized; the     ▓██
                ██▓   rugs might change, but they're not pulled out from   ▓██
