Reception

The Allmusic review by Sean Westergaard awarded the album 4 stars noting that "the band is at the top of their game after all the touring, and everyone seems to have kicked up the energy a notch or two. There's a lot more conducted improvisation than on the previous Electric Masada release... Thanks to their improvisational skills, you hardly notice that the program is much the same on both discs. Score another one for John Zorn and company. At the Mountains of Madness is a winner."[3]

Personnel
gollark: You might also want to use the window API, which is meant for this sort of "terminal occupying subset of screen" usecase.
gollark: ↑It's not really sandboxing, unless you want to lock down that "code" a lot and prevent it from doing lots of things, and not just redirect its terminal.
gollark: That seems bizarrely inefficient. Does anyone even *use* the distance thing on wired networks? Couldn't it be cached?
gollark: Some questions are just really bad though.
gollark: I mean, asking for evidence of things is reasonable.
