How I like my holiday music: either utterly traditional, or blasted in from another dimension. This recent session from UK out-jazz trio Ill Considered falls decisively into the latter category, and as they reinterpret classics like "Ding Dong Merrily On High" and "Auld Lang Syne" the energy is undeniable. UnEvensong indeed. Ill Considered is Idris Rahman on sax, Emre Ramazanoglu on drums, and Liran Donin on electric bass, and you can find them on the New Soil record label.
