Brooklyn-based guitarist Ava Mendoza is always getting up to something interesting. Last year we highlighted her work with Bill Orcutt Guitar Quartet<\/a> and Mama Killa<\/a><\/em>, a wild record she made with gabby fluke-mogul and Carolina P\u00e9rez. Today comes news of Alive Alone, Alive Together<\/em>, a new Mendoza album that features legendary jazz drummer Hamid Drake on four of its eight tracks.<\/p>\n

Lead single “Dust From The Mines” is one of the Drake collabs. There’s some jazz in this roiling cauldron, but its particular brand of chaotic noise has at least as much to do with metal, noise, Yngwie-style neoclassical shredding, and experimental music. It’s a blustery, virtuosic listen. Check it out:<\/p>\n

TRACKLIST:
01 “Sun Gun”
02 “Pink River Dolphins”
03 “Cypress Crossing”
04 “Apart From”
05 “Dust From The Mines”
06 “Irene, Goodnight”
07 “Mama Cocha”
08 “New Ghosts”<\/p>\n

Alive Alone, Alive Together<\/em> is out 5\/22 on Burning Ambulance. Pre-order it here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
