Pochette - Chaos Magick, Through The Looking Glass

Chaos Magick, Through The Looking Glass (mars2025)

Chaos Magick: Through The Looking Glass

 À paraître en mars : 

Chaos Magick: Through The Looking Glass [#9320]
Medeski, Marsella, Hollenberg, and Grohowski are Chaos Magick—a powerful electric quartet formed to perform Zorn’s twisted and challenging compositions. Founded in 2021 as a spinoff of the heavy metal organ trio Simulacrum, they have released no less than five CDS in three years—Chaos Magick, The Ninth Circle, Multiplicities, 444, and Parrhesiastes. Their sixth, Through the Looking Glass, presents three extended works that unfold like a philosophical treatise. Sweet, funky, soulful, imaginative, quirky, and intensely stimulating, this is music that pushes formal musical ideas into fresh new directions. The phrase “Nothing is real—everything is permitted” has never had greater meaning.
