Full Blast is one of the latest incarnations of Peter Brötzmann (alto/tenor saxophone, tárogató). Rounding the lineup are Marino Pliakas (bass guitar) and Michael Wertmuller (drums).
An aggressive, emotive free jazz trio, Full Blast is another of reedman Peter Brötzmann's touring and recording configurations and includes the explosive rhythm section of Marino Pliakas on electric bass and Michael Wertmüller on drums. Wertmüller and Brötzmann toured with each other for years as a duo, and Wertmüller and Pliakas worked with each other frequently on various festival gigs, as well. The trio issued a debut album, the self-titled Full Blast, in 2006 on the German Jazzwerkstatt imprint, following it with Black Hole on Atavistic in 2009.
