The Amy Roberts/Richard Exall Jazz Band Solihull British Legion March 8, 2015 Shockingly, this regular club at Solihull British Legion, so accustomed to traditional New Orleans trotters, had booked a band that specialises in jazz from a slightly later time period.

Hypercolor: Hypercolor
by Dave Wayne
The past few months have seen a stream of truly--and in some cases mind-bogglingly--wonderful guitar-centric power trio albums. Yet, the eponymous debut of the Brooklyn-based avant-jazz-rock band Hypercolor stands out, but not for the reasons you'd think. Sure, the trio consists of musical brainiacs James Ilgenfritz and Lukas Ligeti; genre omnivores whose own work and collaborations ...
Exhaustion / Kris Wanders: Exhaustion / Kris Wanders
by Mark Corroto
The marriage of punk rock to free jazz is a natural fit. Both art forms are DIY; punk a rejection of corporate rock-n-roll of the 1970s and free jazz, the stasis of jazz, some fifty years post-birth.

Re-Evolution Band: The Dark Side of the Wall. 1979-2013
by Luigi Sforza
Ci sono dischi che per loro natura richiederebbero un intervento critico d'equipe: un team di specialisti di vari settori musicali in grado di individuarne le caratteristiche e orientarne il senso. Da qualsiasi angolazione si guardi, The Drak Side of the Wall. 1970-2013 è un disco fittamente costruito, linguisticamente asimmetrico, spiazzante come può essere la musica ...
