Torture Garden is probably the most original of Zorn's work. Has a very visceral feel that not many albums I've ever listened to can top. I mean, what sounded like that in 1989? Closest thing is it's source material Napalm Death which far lacks the eclecticism, and technical precision.

I personally think that sealing the gap between Jazz, Metal, and Punk that way so seamlessly while having it's own unique niche is an astounding accomplishment

Al Pacino = God
