A Fireside Chat with Nels Cline

by AAJ Staff
I could refer to myself as having long been a Nels Cline enthusiast, but I cannot tell a lie. In fact, I am a recent convert, having listened to Interstellar Space Revisited (The Music of John Coltrane) in the summer of '99 (which doesn't have nearly the ring that the Bryan Adams ditty has). But I ...

The Nels Cline Singers: Instrumentals

by AAJ Staff
From the opening notes of Instrumentals, it rapidly becomes clear that the (entirely vocal-free) Nels Cline Singers are out to make some noise. Guitarist Nels Cline, who has eagerly straddled the divide between jazz and rock, maintains an open ear for dissonance--and this is a big reason he's received such broad recognition.

Nels Cline: Destroy All Nels Cline

by AAJ Staff
As you might guess from the title, nihilism reigns supreme on Destroy All Nels Cline. Guitarist Nels Cline has made a personal mission out of exploring the full range of improvised music: his career is dotted with explorations of noise, rock, free jazz, and straight-ahead swinging jazz, not to mention all the points in between. When ...
Nels Cline: Destroy All Nels Cline!

by Derek Taylor
The nihilistic title and imposing instrumentation on this disc might cause some on-the-fence listeners to cringe, or at the very least reach for the closest pair of earplugs. Others possessing ears familiar with the Cline brothers previous projects are likely to feel the tingle of an expectant grin cross their countenances. Four electric guitars and electric ...
Nels Cline: The Inkling

by Michael A. Parker
This represents the first recording by a new group led by Nels Cline, although there are clear traces of his previous work with the Nels Cline Trio. As with much of his previous work, this is unique music that might very well slip through the cracks of the improv, jazz, and rock worlds, but such an ...
