English Suites is a double album by percussionist and electronic musician Paul Lytton and reed player Ken Vandermark.
The album was released on CD in 2000 by Wobbly Rail, an imprint of Merge Records.
"[5] Ken Waxman of JazzWord called the album "a good, but not great session that will probably be appreciated by many improv followers," and stated that the track titled "Stage 3" sounds "as if the percussionist was slowly working his way through a junk pile as Vandermark outputs consistent saxophone blats sounding just this side of Big Jay McNeely.
"[8] Writing for AllMusic, Scott Yanow described the music as "pretty unlistenable," "abrasive," and "jarring."
He commented: "Some of the music is comprised of very intense sound explorations while at other times the sparse setting leads to some introspection, space, and long tones.
