Sky Blue Sky

Sky Blue Sky (2007) more music like this

by Wilco

In 1999, Wilco willingly abdicated their position as one of the leading acts in the alt-country movement to dive head-first into the challenging waters of experimental pop with their album Summerteeth, and moved even further away from their rootsy origins with Yankee Hotel Foxtrot and A Ghost Is Born, winning the group a new and enthusiastic ...

Kicking Television: Live in Chicago

Kicking Television: Live in Chicago (2005) more music like this

by Wilco

While Yankee Hotel Foxtrot and A Ghost Is Born established Wilco's reputation as one of America's most interesting and imaginative rock bands, both albums were the product of a band in flux, and this was particularly evident to those who saw the group on-stage after the release of YHF. Yankee Hotel Foxtrot may have blazed new sonic trails for ...

Draw Breath

Draw Breath (2007) more music like this

by Nels Cline Singers

Nels Cline has developed a very personal sound on guitar but musically he's a tough guy to pin down, playing everything from pure, noisy free improvisation to pure rock & roll. Fortunately, Cline has no interest in being pinned down, as the newest album from the Nels Cline Singers clearly shows. On Draw Breath, Cline and company (Devin Hoff on ...

Instrumentals

Instrumentals (2002) more music like this

by The Nels Cline Singers

As both a sideman and a leader, guitarist and composer Nels Cline has been prolific over the past ten years, lending his six-string wisdom, production, and compositional help to a number of projects and exploring the unknown with his own ensembles. This trio, ironically called the Nels Cline Singers, features only the voices of guitars, basses, ...

The Giant Pin

The Giant Pin (2004) more music like this

by Nels Cline Singers

This CD is a worthy successor to Instrumentals, the inaugural 2002 release from Nels Cline's working trio, which features Devin Hoff on contrabass and Scott Amendola on drums, percussion, and live electronics. As before, the mix is wildly eclectic, with Cline not only having his way with electric guitars and various effects boxes but also ...

156 Strings: Nineteen Totally Original Acoustic Guitarists

156 Strings: Nineteen Totally Original Acoustic Guitarists (2002) more music like this

by Various Artists

Curated by American guitarist Henry Kaiser, 156 Strings features 19 guitarists playing six-string acoustic or 12-string acoustic guitars (there are seven of the latter case; just do the math). In Kaiser's eyes (and ears), they all approach the instrument from an original standpoint and have creative voices. They come from various backgrounds: rock ...

Downpour

Downpour (2007) more music like this

by Nels Cline/Andrea Parkins/Tom Rainey

Almost four years after recording their volume of the Out Trios series (Ash and Tabula: Out Trios, Vol. 3), Nels Cline, Andrea Parkins, and Tom Rainey reconvened at the annual Victoriaville festival for another set in 2006. As expected with these players (and the festival), this live set is not merely a rehashing of the album; it's another ...

Destroy All Nels Cline

Destroy All Nels Cline (2001) more music like this

by Nels Cline

In which the lanky longtime axe hero of Los Angeles' creative music scene seeks to "explore the possibilities of many stringed instruments and their timbres...and to create a climate of catharsis." Oh yeah, and get his noise improv rocks off in the guitar army company of close compadres Woodward Lee Aplanalp, Carla Bozulich, and G.E. Stinson. So ...

Interstellar Space Revisited (The Music of John Coltrane)

Interstellar Space Revisited (The Music of John Coltrane) (1999) more music like this

by Nels Cline & Gregg Bendian

Tribute albums are iffy. Cover albums, where a favorite album is reinterpreted song by song, are downright dangerous. Cover albums of beloved classics, unless the intent is to deconstruct (see Sonic Youth's much-mooted but never-released cover of the Beatles' White Album) are pretty much suicidal. And yet, guitarist Nels Cline and drummer Gregg ...

New Monastery (2006) more music like this

by Nels Cline

If Otomo Yoshihide can interpret Eric Dolphy and Marc Ribot can do Albert Ayler, then why not Nels Cline doing Andrew Hill -- who is still alive and creating marvelously, with his recordings in the current century clear evidence of this. As Cline describes his approach in the liner notes, this most certainly is not a tribute record or an attempt ...

Immolation/Immersion (2005) more music like this

by Nels Cline/Wally Shoup/Chris Corsano

Clarinetist/saxophonist Dexter Payne has an interesting take on Whitney Balliett's term "the sound of surprise," which is how the well-known critic describes jazz. Payne has stated that with the more accessible forms of jazz -- which could be anything from Dixieland to bossa nova -- listeners are given a mixture of surprise and familiarity, ...

The Inkling (2000) more music like this

by Nels Cline

Those who find avant-garde jazz and free improvisation to be too abrasive are advised to check out this album, on which guitarist Nels Cline is joined by bass wizard Mark Dresser, drummer Billy Mintz, and downtown legend Zeena Parkins on electric and acoustic harp. Make no mistake about it, this music (some of which is composed and some improvised ...

Ash and Tabula: Out Trios, Vol. 3 (2004) more music like this

by Nels Cline/Andrea Parkins/Tom Rainey

Nels Cline, Andrea Parkins, and Tom Rainey can play anything from fiendishly complex charts to being consummate improvisers, and it's the latter end of that spectrum that's on display on the appropriately titled Out Trios, Vol. 3. The seven freely improvised tracks don't approach anything resembling a groove until the end of the disc, but clearly ...

Butch (1997) more music like this

by The Geraldine Fibbers

Despite again working with Steve Fisk, Butch doesn't quite put it all together like the marvelous debut Lost Somewhere Between the Earth and My Home, if only because it's not as much of a total reach of styles as that record. By no means is Carla Bozulich's ear for, or abilities at, various country and traditional approaches gone -- the opening ...

Live at the Knitting Factory (1988) more music like this

by Various Artists

This CD, the first of at least four, has ten performances by eight varied groups recorded at the innovative New York club. The music ranges from advanced jazz to sound explorations, avant-rock, performance art and a bit of noise. The Jazz Passengers and Curlew are the best-known groups while some of the others (such as Scanners and Miracle Room) ...

No Sense (2007)

by Nels Cline/Carlos Giffoni/Alan Licht/Lee Ranaldo

No Sense or Nothing Makes Any Sense? The first title is what appears on the spine of the gatefold CD jacket; the second title is featured on the cover -- a typical noise music send-out to the music biz, I guess. So, by whatever name you know this album, we are talking about the same one. Nels Cline, Alan Licht and Lee Ranaldo -- three top-rate ...

A Ghost Is Born [Bonus Track] (2004) more music like this

by Wilco

It's hard not to wonder if Wilco's breakthrough 2002 release, Yankee Hotel Foxtrot, would have been such a critical success and so eagerly embraced by the indie rock community if it hadn't become such a cause célèbre thanks to the band being unceremoniously dropped by Reprise Records, and then signed by Nonesuch after the album had become a hot ...
