I saw John Zorn 3 times... The first was a tribute too the giant of free jazz Don Cherry. Amazing concert(music, technic, freedom...). The second was dedicated to jewish music... 12 musicians, 3 different shows in the same evening... And the third was.... HARDCORE ZORN! It was not Naked City, but it was amazing!
I'm a big fan of John Zorn! He did everything! He played Free jazz, hard-rock, indian music, jewish music, be bop, hard bop, cool jazz.... EVERYTHING! He's excellent, definitly.

@sthnwatch Have you ever heard of Fantomas? they play similar extreme music to Naked City. They are still around; and the band's music is written all by Mike. AND, Mike still plays shows with John Zorn and does this stuff; only better. Not long ago, he played a show with an experimental-grindcore band, and what did he do vocally? he screamed his ass off, and made bizarre vocal effects. Mike's only mainstream success was with FNM. Outside FNM, most of his music is bizarre, heavy, weird and THIS!

@sthnwatch Have you asked Mike recently, have you? Has he recanted the "awful" music he made in his past? If so, let's hope repents for the shit he did with that funk metal band he made so many idiotic fans with. And I don't mean Mr. Bungle. I'm pretty sure if you "asked Mike today" you'd find he's extremely proud his contributions to Naked City and myriad Zorn projects. Despite what you want to believe, he still champions and is heavily involved with avant-garde music.

"You need some form of melody and harmony to have music and this doesn't do that."
This pretty much proves that no, you do not have a pretty open mind about music, there is so much more than that even in older music.

@ThePinkFloyder1000 i totally agree. but yet it still amazes me....

This is just noise. I'm sorry, you can call me closed-minded all you want but I have an actual CD collection spanning about 50 years of music from all sorts of different genres so I'm pretty sure I have an open mind about music, but this is just random sounds which do not flow together. You need some form of melody and harmony to have music and this doesn't do that.
I didn't know Father Ted was the bassist for Naked City.
