Liked it, but was expecting a bit of this:

 

Actually according to Wikipedia's article on Last Exit they manage to draw a following of quite a few hardcore punk fans. 

I have no idea if the tittle of that song is a direct reference to the band of the same name though.

Bill Laswell of Last Exit was also in a band with Mick Harris of Napalm Death , along with John Zorn: Painkiller

Not surprisingly they played a kind of extreme free jazz/metal hybrid:

 

I bought the first album at the time for the Mick Harris connection....... Zorn/Laswell may not have came on to my radar otherwise.

Love Painkiller!

Youtube algorithm served this up earlier.  What's this?... dunno...who is she?..... wait up.... hang on a minute.... THAT's Anthony Jackson and Simon Phillips in the engine room... I'll carry on watching and listening.

Holy cow! Glad I did, this is immense.  I'd never heard of Hiromi Uehara, but I have now. Insane skills and utter joy in her performance. Outstanding!

Always thought Robert Sledge didn't get the credit he deserved as a bass player, I guess when you are in a band with a genius like Ben Folds your talent is likely to get over shadowed. 

Anyway this song has a great bass solo and a funny video. Enjoy... 

Love Ben Folds (Five). Mr Sledge has a great tone.

I am listening to Clan Destiny by Wishbone Ash.

That's cheered me up no end! Superb! Apart from the musicianship, she's clearly enjoying herself immensely,  and Anthony Jackson's expression is just something else.

Off to find more now, I have an afternoon of reading documents, so some classy music in the background will be good. Or a complete distraction.😁

Love it. The older I get, the more I'm liking a bit of jaaaaz
