Jihad (Points of Order)
Jihad (Points of Order) is an album by American composer Bill Laswell, issued under the moniker Automaton. It was released on October 11, 1994 by Strata.[1] Lisa Carr of the music journal Option favored Jihad over Automaton's previous release, saying it "deftly balances the cool, ambient sheen of Tetsu Inoue's electronics with the warm textures of Nicky Skopelitis' guitar and the unexpected pleasures of violinist Lili Haydn."[2]
