"Memory is a powerful thing, but it's so private, fluid, and unreliable that it can seem almost impossible to capture in a work of art— and history is often no more stable, once you look closely enough. Roberts has succeeded at evoking both, though, and gives her audience a long look at something ghostly, tragic, and beautiful." – Chicago Reader
"Roberts is a major talent – a unique and easily identifiable saxophone voice who's also a thoughtful composer capable of choosing empathetic and supportive collaborators. Expect to hear her name more and more in the coming years." – The Wire
"Complex, life-affirming music that’s both serious and playful, steeped in tradition yet as highly original and forward-thinking as anything you're likely to hear this year." – Tiny Mix Tapes
"This is an ambitious work, and all of its aims have surely been fulfilled." – BBC
"COIN COIN gives eloquent voice to the fractured nature of identity, the way conflicting identifications jostle for prominence in our psyches, the multiple consciousness of modern hybridity." – PopMatters
"COIN COIN belongs to the most important Jazz records of the past 10 years! If Matana Roberts keeps going like this she definitely will become thee spokeswoman for a new, politically conscious and refractory Jazz scene." – Jazzthetik (DE)
"An auspicious first document in what promises to be a fruitful series... Roberts' intimate delivery and quivering vibrato are vulnerable, fiercely angry and may well bring you to tears." – Exclaim
"An avant-jazz concept album performed live, COIN COIN is an uncompromising listen... inventive, sapient and engrossing, it’s not an easy listen, but it is an exceptional one." – The Skinny
