Editorial Reviews
3.5 Stars - Good/Very Good - ...TRIPPING OVER GOD builds cuts from the ground up, layering and looping percussion, drums, noise clouds, vocals and lots of guitar...
Down Beat (10/01/1995)
...TRIPPING OVER GOD is a fluid, ever-shifting melange of unpredictable styles....Torn's clearly more concerned with texture and personal vision than harmony and sales figures...
Option (05/01/1995)
...Torn pools concepts that Hendrix, Robert Fripp, and Brian Eno...introduced into popular music long ago: controlled feedback, distortion, Middle Eastern melodicism, North African drumming and chanting--but he deploys these notions in ways that are intimate and mind-throttling...
Vibe (08/01/1995)
...easily his most experimental and guitar-intensive release in a provocative 20-year career....TRIPPING OVER GOD is a testament to Torn's ability to interact creatively with technology...
JazzTimes (07/01/1995)
3 Stars - Good - ...roughly split between strangulated psychedelic fuzzgrunge and cumulatively meditational flotation, with Torn fully exploring state-of-the-art guitar technology....Hendrix, Fripp and Frisell are the spiritual forefathers here, but not before their ideas have passed through Torn's personality shredder...
