"The final word in Norway-sponsored proto-punk free jazz
Reconnecting the proto-punk of the Stooges and MC5 with its ideological roots in Sixties free jazz, this collaboration between garage-rockers Cato Salsa Experience, jazz trio the Thing, and improvisatory eminence Joe McPhee, is not only the noisiest record ever to bear the legend 'with thanks to the arts council of Norway', it's also the most entertaining. Having previously energised Led Zeppelin's 'Whole Lotta Love', these masters of the sludge-jazz free-for-all now set themselves the ultimate challenge - a version of 'Louie Louie' more psychotic than Black Flag's - and pass with flying colours." -Ben Thompson, The Guardian
