Format: CD Condition: New Released: 2015 Country: USA Packaging: Digipack Recorded at Eastside Sound, in New York City, New York during May and June, 2015 by Marc Urselli.
"The third CD from Zorn's most dangerous new instrumental ensemble is inspired by the work and thought of Swedish playwright, poet, painter, philosopher, novelist, alchemist and occultist August Strindberg, whose dark brooding visions were a precursor to expressionism, surrealism and more. Featuring the long form composition "Inferno," named after one of Srindberg's most startling texts, the music touches upon metal, jazz, minimalism, atonality, ambient and more. White hot burning intensity from the mind of downtown NY's eternally youthful hell-raiser performed by a virtuoso trio forged from the worlds of jazz and metal."-Tzadik
