Mostly Other People Do the Killing: Forty Fort
by Eyal Hareuveni
The experience of listening to the highly gifted quartet Mostly Other Do the Killing (MOPDtK) is like taking a ride on roller-coaster while drunk, but still trusting your life in the hands of a wild driver who often has some epileptic fits. It is fun, no doubt; a wild fun, like going to a circus. But ...
Mostly Other People Do The Killing: Forty Fort
by Raul d'Gama Rose
Several wonderful things distinguish Mostly Other People Do The Killing (MOPDtK) from almost any other band playing today in the long shadows of Thelonious Monk and Ornette Coleman. These are, in no particular order: a wild humor; an extreme sense of the angular melody; brave harmonies; and a leaping sense of rhythm. None of these pay ...
Mostly Other People Do the Killing: Forty Fort
by Jakob Baekgaard
Even though jazz is an improvised art that's bursting with the unexpected, some groups stand out as being especially adventurous and wild. In terms of anarchy of sound, Mostly Other People Do the Killing is in a class of its own. On their fourth effort, Forty Fort, the group descends further into musical ...

01. The Zs - Buck (Gilgongo - 2006). Disco dal vivo di una delle mie band preferite. E' un esempio perfetto della loro musica ed è assolutamente implacabile nella sua intensità e nella messa a fuoco. E verso la fine ci sono pure un curioso rumore di folla ed un pezzo a-cappella. 02. Kenny Wheeler - ...
Yes in My Backyard: Download Peter Evans' "Micro"
Yes In My Backyard is a semiweekly column showcasing MP3s from new and emerging local talent. Queens trumpeter Peter Evans blats on the bleeding edge of out-jazz while also circling the fringes of noise-punk, sound design, and Rothko-like colors of pure tone. Although his music leans towards the dissonant and disorienting, Evans has a tender, forgiving ...
The Flying Luttenbachers, Seabrook Power Plant, Zevious, Many Arms: We're No Punks
by Mark Corroto
The greatest holiday film ever made was not Jimmy Stewart's It's A Wonderful Life, from 1946, but the 1955 black comedy We're No Angels. Its three stars--Humphrey Bogart, Peter Ustinov and Aldo Ray--play escaped convicts from Devil's Island who hide out in the home of a naive family running a local haberdashery. The trio set out ...
