Re: mr bungle

Well then, since you haven't heard the past two, I'd highly recommend them.
They are both much more mature and different than the self-titled first
recording. Where the first one was full-of the crossbred metal thing, these
two are more song-oriented, and jazz-directed. Since you don't like
anything Zorn does (and his catalog is highly differing as well), I would
almost think that you might appreciate the newest Bungle (California) more.
I don't see that they're self-consiciously being weird at all on the last
two. They're just a bit, let's say, odd...
