Reception
The Allmusic review by Marc Gilman awarded the album 4½ stars stating "At times sounding like an Eastern Ornette Coleman, and sometimes playing with the rampant fury that is characteristic solely of Zorn himself, the band has incorporated and evolved the form of jazz. This album is certainly a highlight of the Masada collection as a whole, and provides a great introduction to the band. Some of the songs can be found reworked on Bar Kokhba as well. There is little more to be said of this album, as the music speaks for itself".[2]

Personnel
gollark: Generally preorders are cheaper to incentivize it.
gollark: I would use void, but I forgot the password to my void testing potatoform™.
gollark: Why do you have a separate account on your þhone? You can just use firefox separate profile things like I do for some of my alts.
gollark: LXQT is just LXDE, but QT.
gollark: `config.h` reminds me of how I, when I can't be bothered to add one line of code to load config files, just shove a bunch of constants in at the top of a file.
