  "Bad ass name for a trio right? WWill actually started as a six-piece (with Franke Vogl and Malcolm McDuffie from Metamatics and Raquel Vogl from Meltdown), but was eventually whittled down to Chuck Bettis on bass, Jerry Lim on guitar and Josh Blair (later of Supersystem and Orthrelm) on drums and electronics. Recorded between '96 and '98, and recently officially issued for the first time, this album is mostly a skronky free jazz affair, with Lim's metallic guitar work subbing in for the squawking horns. It's cool, but only on the chaotic din of "Smoking Bird" and "Copus" do these dudes get into the apocalyptic shit worthy of their moniker." - Chris Richards, The Fader
