Naked City was an avant-garde music group led by saxophonist and composer John Zorn. Active primarily in New York City from 1988 to 1993, Naked City was initiated by Zorn as a composition workshop to test the limits of composition (and improvisation) in a traditional rock band lineup.
Its music incorporated recognizable elements of jazz, grindcore, surf, classical, heavy metal, country music, punk rock and other genres.
When John stopped hearing/writing for the band, they broke up. In Zorn’s words: «Compositionally the challenge I set for myself was to see how much I could come up with given the limitations of the simple sax, guitar, keyboard, bass, drums format.»
The group covered numerous film soundtrack cuts, including work by Georges Delerue. Heretic was intended as the soundtrack for a film starring Karen Finley. The tracks «Bonehead» and «Hellraiser», from the album Torture Garden, are featured in swapped form during the opening sequence and closing credits of Michael Haneke’s film Funny Games (1997) and its 2007 remake.

I, for some reason, can't seem be able to move on from the self-titled. I have Torture Garden but I just can't seem to find it in me to put enough effort into listening to it attentively.

They also need more fucking listeners! I'm hoping that the reason they have so little is because lots of people are tagging them as "John Zorn" (which I did for a while). But this band is literally the greatest band ever. Please, people, don't just listen to the Self-Titled, I don't care if you go and download "Grand Guignol", "Radio", "Heretic", and "Absinthe"... even buy the Box Set off Tzadik... just LISTEN TO THIS BAND.

TG is a compilation of all the hardcore bits on NC and GG , so if you want the full experience you should listen to NC and GG instead of just TG, right?
