Thirteen marks a bold new chapter for legendary jazz-rock pioneers Soft Machine. Released in 2026, this album finds the band’s ever-evolving lineup delivering thirteen all-instrumental pieces that bridge their signature Canterbury Scene influences with progressive experimentation and vibrant, genre-blending energy.
From the bluesy opener “Lemon Poem Song” to the avant-garde chaos of “Seven Hours” and the expansive, thirteen-minute epic “The Longest Night,” Thirteen demonstrates Soft Machine’s continued innovation and mastery. Thoughtfully structured and evocative, this release serves as both a tribute to the band’s storied past and a forward-thinking statement, making it an essential listen for fans of adventurous music.
