The legendary Moonchild trio returns for another intense
journey into the worlds of magic, alchemy and witchcraft.
Following one of Zorn's true masterpieces Six Litanies for
Heliogabalus, this fourth volume streamlines and simplifies
the music with new melodic elements bringing Zorn's sax and
the lyricism of Masada into the power and structural
complexity of the patented Moonchild sound. With Patton using
his prodigious voice to sing melodies in addition to his
preverbal screams and howls, The Crucible is another bold step
from mad alchemist John Zorn. Including special guest
guitarist Marc Ribot on one Led Zeppelin influenced track,
this is a rocking new installment to the Moonchild-Astronome-
Heliogabalus legacy.
Personnel:
Joey Baron: Drums
Trevor Dunn: Bass
Mike Patton: Voice
Marc Ribot: Guitar
John Zorn: Alto Sax
