Exceprt of a review from 'Underground Musings':
"One of the stranger bands ever to cross my path, this is apparently a one-man side-project of more traditional metal that seems...well...'fuqued up' isn't quite the phrasing, but imagine some wacky troll crawled out of a Primus video and danced an evil black metal jig in a straightjacket with that weird "band-suit" thing (the one with a bass drum, trumpet, cymbals, guitar, harmonica, etc. all strapped to his body) that Dick Van Dyke wears in Merry Poppins, and you're closer. Maybe if Mortiis sat down and realized he was a goofy-arsed silly freak who belongs on a circus stage and made sillier but still somehow metal music, this might be what came out his evil bunghole.
So what is this? The songs are short, they are sometimes metal for large portions and then all of a sudden a funk or jazz or easy listening or who knows what riff will pop out of nowhere, only to never return. In fact, these aren't even songs as much as collages of riffs. The thing that makes this more interesting than some 'ha ha we're a silly band making fun of black metal' (ever heard Thoth?) band, is that the black metal, grind, thrash, and death metal riffs here are pretty good. The black metal riffs are good enough to make me want to get a whole CD of this kind of black metal, which reminds me of a bizarre mix of 'true' bands like Darkthrone and Burzum, and really 'not true' ones like Dimmu Borgir or Katatonia..."
Christian Blitzer is the less famous brother of Wolf Blitzer of CNN fame. He has formed Organ Grinder to bring forth metallic chaos...neither true black, death, grind, or any other type of metal
