Vinyl LP pressing. To emerge from a global pandemic with a renewed sense of situational awareness, hard won insight, and a new album is the kind of move we've come to expect from Thrice over the last twenty years. With Horizons/East, Dustin Kensrue and his bandmates address, with candor and courage, the fragile and awkward arrangements that pass for civilization, while inviting us to dwell more knowingly within our own lives. Without surrendering any of the energy and hard edge of their previous albums, they've given us a profoundly meditative work which serves as a musical summons to everyday attentiveness.Since forming Thrice with guitarist Teppei Teranishi, bassist Eddie Breckenridge, and drummer Riley Breckenridge in 1998, Kensrue has never been one to back down from a mental fight. This mood is set by the opening synth-driven number InchColor of the Sky,Inch which sounds well-suited to accompany the closing credits of the Stranger Things season finale. Think Flying Lotus giving way to Elbow and setting the listener down in a new dimension. A self-recorded effort, Horizons/East conveys a palpable sense of danger, determination, and possibility. Album Tracks 1. The Color of the Sky 2. Scavengers 3. Buried in the Sun 4. Northern Lights 5. Summer Set Fire to the Rain 6. Still Life 7. The Dreamer 8. Robot Soft Exorcism 9. Dandelion Wine 10. Unitive/East

Acked alternately by bassists Percy Heath and Gary Mapp and drummers Art Blakey and Max Roach, Monk pours forth his idiosyncratic virtuosity in this set of tunes recorded by the inimitable Rudy Van Gelder. Beautifully rendered, 'Blue Monk' is the highlight of the album, adventurously combining disharmonic riffs within a melodic and very memorable structure. Monk's explorations conjure up images of a mathematician working out geometric patterns on the keyboard and evoke a sublime beauty as they build order out of chaos. Intimate, intense, and inspired, Thelonious Monk Trio is a must-have for those ready to dive into the genius of Monk. Album Tracks 1. Blue Monk 2. Just a Gigolo 3. Bemsha Swing 4. Reflections 5. Little Rootie Tootie 6. Sweet and Lovely 7. Bye-Ya 8. Monk's Dream 9. Trinkle, Tinkle 10. These Foolish Things
