Astronome
4 STARS ALL MUSIC GUIDE
Zorn continues his intense new rock direction with a second release by the dynamic all star trio from his acclaimed song suite Moonchild to present an intense and mysterious tale of magic and alchemy. Featuring the mad vocal wizardry of Mike Patton singing in preverbal language accompanied by long time cohort Trevor Dunn on electric bass and Joey Baron on drums, this is Zorn at his edgy and uncompromising best. An opera of unbridled madness and complexity that will make your jaw drop. Recorded and mixed by the radical posse of musical innovator Bill Laswell.
"Astronome cannot be explained or even commented upon with conventional written-language technology; that said, each true fan of Zorn should make the effort to try and take this work in. It's a masterpiece".
- Thom Jurek, All Music Guide
This CD is contained in a small box and the comes with two booklets - one with a set of liner notes by Zorn the other a libretto for the album, with photographs accompanying each scene in the opera.
