Inevitable Western on CD

2014 release, The Bad Plus' 10th studio recording and first collection of original material since 2012. INEVITABLE WESTERN continues the leaderless trio's committed belief in what they've dubbed avant-garde populism' the idea that serious music can be as engaging and accessible as it is forward-thinking and provocative. The album sees the group exploring the same set of aesthetic principles that fired their inception, a rigorous exploration of myriad musical forms born of Jazz but advanced using any sonic source material that forwards their own indefinable thing. The past 15 years have seen the genre-smashing band creating a distinctive and original repertoire of inventive and exciting original music, along with a series of iconoclastic covers of such divergent artists as Nirvana and Neil Young, Aphex Twin and Ornette Coleman.
