The Section Quartet is equal parts men and women (on violin, viola, and cello) who are severely talented. Fuzzbox displays the Quartet's repertoire of rock and roll covers. The selection includes classical renditions of The Postal Service's "Such Great Heights"; Yeah Yeah Yeahs' "Phenomena", and Radiohead's "Paranoid Android". When the Section Quartet puts their fingers on these well-known songs the effects are grandiose over-the-top makeovers. Each composition survives recognizable, but easily greeted as if for the first time.  The novelty of the album obliges one to listen at least once if not time and again. – Julie Martin
