With Copernicus, everything is evolution where the apparent end is just the beginning in a world where nothing, including the illusion of humanity, can stay the same from one moment to the next preventing anything from actually existing. If intellectual personal evolution in the ever evolving understanding and interpretation of Absolute Reality by Copernicus is intellectually observable by him, everything is OK for him. That evolution is what counts and being able to document the evolution in a poetry/music album is even better. He evolves through the art of expression. You get it out there spontaneously and see it, because you do not even know what you know! You get to see what is lurking and boiling up in the subconscious because Copernicus is always searching for the new idea. The music in this new studio album InchWorthless!Inch is relentless in the face of this laid back introspective Copernicus who for good or bad was relegated to an isolated side of the studio while recording instead of his normal position of front and center at the head of the musicians directing and inspiring them. This isolation took away the demand to be the inspiring performer, the center of attention, and just be another element in the 15 unit group of improvising musicians led by the master, Pierce Turner. All the musicians had was his spoken words. Truthfully, we have never seen a Copernicus so low key and soul searching throughout an entire album in his entire 30 years of recording.

Brand new studio album by Copernicus, the conceptual concerns of the New York performer-poet who addresses the Universe itself. He is not distracted by everyday matters. He is not penning couplets about the changing fortunes of human existence, other than on the grandest (or lowliest) scale. He speaks of subatomic matter, and refuses to bear any glad tidings. As always, Copernicus is documenting the evolution of an old-world human confronting modern physic. Musical direction by Pierce Turner, and Copernicus' powerful vocals are accompanied by a 13 piece band, featuring among others members of Celtic rock band Black 47 (Larry Kirwan, Thomas Hamlin and Fred Parcells). InchAll music is spontaneous, completely improvised, chaotic, ravingly psychedelic, and perfectly intuitively scored to the rants, enlightenment, and madness he's conveying.Inch
