John Zorn - 2020 Beyond Good And Evil (Simulacrum Live)

John Zorn - 2020 Beyond Good And Evil (Simulacrum Live) #John_Zorn, #Tzadik, #violator_vtr Label: Tzadik – TZ 8369 Series: Archival Series – Format: CD, Album Country: US Released: 24 Jan 2020 Genre: Jazz, Rock Style: Avantgarde, Experimental From 2015–2017, in the midst of an historic creative high, Zorn wrote and recorded no less than six CDs of music for “Simulacrum,” his most powerful and intense 21st century ensemble; the music then became a project for live performance. This concert from July 2019 finds the band at their blazing best, performing compositions from four different “Simulacrum” releases. No one blends metal and jazz quite like Zorn (he’s been doing it since the late 1980s) and these mind-bendingly intense performances will leave you breathless. Beautifully recorded at Firehouse 12 in New Haven and lovingly mixed at Bill Laswell’s Orange Sound by James Dellatacoma this is a hyper powered stop-on-a-dime live performance by three virtuosic musical maniacs. Drums – Kenny Grohowski Guitar – Matt Hollenberg Organ – John Medeski
