New Cold Bleak Heat cd
 
From the Family Vineyard website:

Cold Bleak Heat Simitu CD
Cold Bleak Heat is the dream-team, east-coast avant jazz line-up of alto/tenor saxophonist Paul Flaherty (Dream/Aktion Unit), drummer Chris Corsano (Sunburned Hand of the Man, Vampire Belt), trumpeter Greg Kelley (nmperign, Heathen Shame), and acoustic bassist Matt Heyner (No Neck Blues Band, Test). While explosive as their 2005 debut, Simitu brings a melancholic, even sensitive feel to these improvisations.
Yet, no need to worry about these four wipin' tears on their sleeves. CBH wages between the melodic centers/ghostly solos of Flaherty/Kelley and loose, downhill, free blow outs you'd expect, all while maintaining the grand swell of a hardcore jazz symphony. Even as complex and multi-paced beats sink into bowed-drones and vocal hollers, focused lyricism remains the returning leader. As members of some of the past decades' most innovative and visceral musical outlets, CBH continues as a pioneering force into jazz improvisation. Features liner notes and drawings by Christina Carter (Charalambides)

Out on April 10th but they have copies at www.secondlayer.co.uk now I think.

yes! really looking forward to this one as the last few where fantastic.

Iain 03.23.2007 11:20 AM

Last few? I thought there was only It's Magnificent, But It Isn't War before this one.

jon boy 03.23.2007 11:21 AM

the hated music and another one exist i think.

Iain 03.23.2007 11:23 AM

Oh right. The Hated Music was just Flaherty/Corsano though (and then The Beloved music after that). I thought you meant full Cold Bleak Heat line up ones. I think adding Heyner and Kelly to the fold really takes things up a notch.

jon boy 03.23.2007 11:25 AM

i thought that cold bleak heat was corsano flaherty and a revolving door lineup?

Iain 03.23.2007 11:36 AM

Really? Maybe. The first one was Corsano/Flaherty/Heyner/Kelly and so is this one I think. I hope that's a stable lineup because they are great.

jon boy 03.23.2007 11:38 AM

yeah they are great, i think they keep it pretty loose in regards to the lineup, like the hand of the man but who knows?
