It was released on May 5, 2015, through the Brainfeeder record label. Critical reception{{Album ratings| title = | subtitle = | MC = 83/100[1] | rev1 = AllMusic | rev1Score = {{rating|4|5}}[2] | rev2 = Drowned in Sound | rev2Score = 8/10[3] | rev3 = The Guardian | rev3Score = {{rating|4|5}}[4] | rev4 = Pitchfork | rev4Score = 8.6/10[5] | rev5 = Rolling Stone | rev5Score = {{rating|3.5|5}}[6] }} Upon its release, The Epic received positive reviews from music critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from critics, the album received an average score of 83, which indicates "universal acclaim", based on 7 reviews.[1] AllMusic critic Thom Jurek described the album as "21st century jazz as accessible as it is virtuosic -- feel matters to Washington," and further wrote: "Holistic in breadth and deep in vision, it provides a way into this music for many, and challenges the cultural conversation about jazz without compromising or pandering."[2] Russell Warfield of Drowned in Sound described the album as "wonderful stuff," further stating that the record "deserves a high score by any standards of evaluation."[3] The Guardian critic John Fordham, who was positive in his assessment of the album, wrote: "Only a shortage of thematic surprises – given its extravagant length – keeps it from being quite the seismically jazz-changing departure that some admirers are claiming."[4] Seth Colter Walls of Pitchfork awarded the album with "Best New Music" tag, stating: "The Epic actually makes good on its titular promise without bothering to make even a faint-hearted stab in the direction of fulfilling its pre-release hype."[5]Accolades
