Reviews highlight Slivovitz as a Neapolitan seven‑member ensemble blending jazz‑rock, prog and Mediterranean/Balkan influences. Critics praise inventive arrangements, odd time signatures and strong violin and rhythmic work. 'Hubris' (2009) and 'Bani Ahead' (2011) are singled out as notable releases.

For:Fans of jazz‑rock, progressive rock, Mediterranean/world‑fusion and adventurous instrumental ensembles.

 The album “Hubris” is the second by Slivovitz, a band that, despite having a typically Balkan name, taken from plum brandy, is instead proudly Neapolitan, so much so that they include the donkey in various forms on every cover, even in the album now to be released.

 It is not us who are listening to the album, but the songs that work their way into us, some sweetly, others forcefully; the melodic phrases remain well etched, often catchy and enjoyable from the very first listen, but never predictable.
