Aaron LaFont of New Orleans' premiere music & culture publication, Offbeat Magazine, reviewed Khris Royal & Dark Matter's new album, Dark Matter (hear it here).  He writes:

Over the past few years, saxophonist Khris Royal has emerged as one of the most exciting up-and-coming musicians on the New Orleans music scene. He’s one of George Porter, Jr.’s Runnin’ Pardners, and his own funk-fusion outfit, Dark Matter, has been busy establishing itself as one of the city’s most incendiary live acts. On the band’s debut album, Dark Matter, they infuse soul into space funk and jazz into bump-and-grind.
