| Gee! An Evan Parker album with a new star of the drum kit, Chris Corsano, and one of the most intriguing bassists to emerge in the last few years, John Edwards? This is a record you can’t miss! “A Glancing Blow” is destined to make history. The instruments are the same of Evan’s “classical” trio with Barry Guy and Paul Lytton, but the approach is quite different. The master saxophonist uses his trademark multiphonics and circular breathing techniques in a surprising, new context that only such resourceful musicians could provide. Although Edwards is now a central figure in the improvised music scene in London, playing with the likes of Phil Minton, Tony Bevan, Eddie Prévost and Lol Coxhill, among many others, he has other musical adventures that have little or nothing to do with the improv philosophy, ranging from the metal-noise-jazz band GOD to the “remixers” project Spring Heel Jack. Corsano established his name as a hardcore free player and an expert in sax-drums duos with the likes of Paul Flaherty. Neo-psychedelic rock and folk fans worship him due to his collaborations with the groups Sunburned Hand of the Man, Six Organs of Admittance, and Vibracathedral Orchestra. And noise freaks applaud his work with Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth, Jim O’Rourke, and Nels Cline of Wilco. Prepare yourself: the music here is rough and raw and it takes no prisoners. |
