"When searching for undiscovered gems in rock music, we should all be so lucky to come upon a band like the Jane Getter Premonition. Exquisitely produced, Anomalia boasts an all-star cast of musicians weaving magic over an album of skilled songwriting... embracing elements of blues, jazz, folk..."
- SONIC PERSPECTIVES
"For two decades, guitarist, composer, and vocalist Jane Getter has been wowing audiences with stellar technique and an ever-evolving palette of sounds melding prog and jazz fusion with savvy metal, hard rock, groove-centric, and soul jazz sounds she developed while serving with organist Jack McDuff. While 2021's Anomalia comfortably dwelled between melodic prog-rock and edgy fusion, Division World falls more in the camp of artful, edgy, progressive pop. There's plenty of instrumental acumen displayed on Division World, carried in expertly written songs with intuitive arrangements amid unintrusive production. All told, they deliver an uncommon emotional depth and musical sophistication in spades."

"Anomalia is a progressive jazz-rock album, to be sure, but it goes well beyond the chops fest trap that the idiom can sometimes fall prey to. Getter is as much an astute songwriter as she is an accomplished guitarist. "
