2025 Year in Review by the Numbers: The Magnificent Seven and the Pluralism of Taste

by Marek J. Śmietański
February 17, 2026

My Journey From Sports Analytics to Counting Jazz I've always had a soft spot for statistics and rankings--especially those that try to say something more than just “what people like."

Adam Beaudoin's 15 Favorite Albums of 2025

by Adam Beaudoin
January 8, 2026

Year-end lists are a strange creature, as conceptually absurd as they are genuinely useful.

Sure, a picture will be taken. It might even prove you ...

Nels Cline: Consentrik Quartet

Read "Consentrik Quartet" reviewed by Don Ball

by Don Ball
September 2, 2025

While Nels Cline has been playing the guitar-hero rock star for the past two decades with Wilco, he continues to release his own solo recordings under various names (including the Nels Cline 4 and the Nels Cline Singers, which, amusingly, contain no vocalists) tailored toward the avant-garde side of jazz (with the notable exception of his ...
