Revered experimental jazz trio The Necks return this October with Disquiet, a sprawling new triple album. Marking their milestone 20th studio release, as well as their 39th year together, the upcoming Disquiet spans more than three hours of vast, absorbing, textural and quietly electrifying sound. According to the press release, the album finds Tony Buck, Chris Abrahams, and Lloyd Swanton “pushing at the outer edges of their collective intuition, building and unraveling hypnotic structures with microscopic focus”. The four extended pieces on Disquiet were “meticulously recorded and sculpted” to explore texture, space, and subtle shifts in mood and rhythm. There’s no set order for listening, just three discs of open and immersive music inviting listeners to experience the music in any order.

We’ll have to wait until October 10th for the album to drop through Northern Spy but we can already hear the transcendent ‘Causeway’, clocking in at 26 minutes. Let it unfold.
