John Zorn was deep into extremity when he formed Painkiller with bassist Bill Laswell and drummer Mick “the Human Tornado” Harris, then a member of British grindcore pioneers Napalm Death. The trio’s first two EPs are combined on this 22-track, 52-minute disc. Guts Of A Virgin is pure explosive force: Zorn sputters and wails; Laswell lays down thick, distorted noise bass; and Harris demolishes the kit. On Buried Secrets, the sonic palette expands, incorporating dub and industrial. Justin Broadrick and G.C. Green of Godflesh guest on two tracks.
