This record collected the nine ‘hardcore miniatures’ from John Zorn's initial wildly eclectic ‘Naked City’ album, and thirty-three that were later included on ‘Grand Guignol’.

The name comes from ‘Le jardin des supplices’, an 1899 decadent novel by Octave Mirbeau.

Personnel:
John Zorn: alto saxophone, vocals
Bill Frisell: guitar
Wayne Horvitz: keyboards
Fred Frith: bass
Joey Baron: drums
Yamatsuka Eye: vocals

I prefer Naked City (self-titled) and Radio but they're not really metal (still a few "grind" tracks in it)

For anyone looking for some good intense jazz
