Dan McCarthy: Songs of the Doomed: Some Jaded, Atavistic Freakout

Read "Songs of the Doomed: Some Jaded, Atavistic Freakout" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky


Songs of the Doomed is, in essence, the love child of self-stylized journalism and outré composition methodologies. Drawing inspiration from the work of Hunter S. Thompson, vibraphonist Dan McCarthy created the gonzo cypher to help translate some of the maverick's writer's lines into tone rows. The rules of serialism then cemented certain things in place while ...

Myriad3: Vera

Read "Vera" reviewed by Angelo Leonardi


Nell'affollato universo dei piano trio, i canadesi del Myriad 3 confermano il loro approccio personale fondato su calibrati equilibri musicali, in un gioco minimalista dove confluiscono elementi di rock progressivo e musica da camera. La loro musica è attentamente progettata e il pianoforte di Chris Donnelly svolge un ruolo davvero paritario con il contrabbasso di Dan ...

To a list that includes The Bad Plus, Phronesis, and E.S.T. add the Canadian group Myriad3 which draws from concepts in classical music and progressive rock.

Myriad3: Moons

Read "Moons" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan


Someone's always trying to take a tried and true format out on a new tangent. Consider the piano trio: Bill Evans introduced deep, classically-influenced harmonics and a democracy of instrumental input in the late fifties and early sixties. The Esbjorn Svennson Trio (e.s.t.) brought in classical, rock, pop and techno elements; The Bad Plus plays with ...

Myriad3: The Where

Read "The Where" reviewed by Angelo Leonardi


Dopo il notevole debutto di due anni fa con Tell, il piano trio canadese torna con un avventuroso lavoro, che evidenzia personalità in una formula strumentale che sembrava aver espresso ormai tutto, senza lasciare altri margini creativi. Se quell'esordio s'ispirava al trio EST di Esbjörn Svensson ora la ricerca si fa più autonoma, ponendo in essere ...
