Kinda like U2 and 'Pop', etc., Pat Metheny became such a big name and could tell his label 'this is what I want to do' and they had no choice but to release it. Note that it's been OOP for QUITE a while. I, of course, a devoted Pat fan bought my copy fresh off the truck for full price and some weeks later sold it at a second-hand record store for a buck. Pat Metheny is a VERY, VERY talented man and I have been a fan since 1978, but sometimes I think his head 'swells' a bit....and someone needs to bring him down. This is NOT music.....don't look for a 'Secret Story', a 'Phase Dance' (although I think some phase SHIFT is in here)....think 'Offramp' meets 'Pretty Scattered' played backwards.

An interesting piece by a true master. Metheny is constantly pushing the boundaries of his ability as a composer & player. 'Zero Tolerence' is a difficult listen for most but is an interesting insight into the mind of a great artist. /GQ

Unsurprisingly, not my favorite Pat Metheny disc... by Jeffrey D. Kenyon (USA)  2 Stars
August 17, 2009
Ok, it's not my favorite. But...can I make a suggestion to those of you slamming it as nothing but noise? If you haven't already sold your copy, try listening to Pt. 2. There's music in there.

A Different Map of the World by Douglas Weaver (Ypsilanti, MI USA)  5 Stars
August 11, 2009
I am utterly entranced by this album. For me it paints a certain picture of the world: crowded, high-speed, claustrophobic, hyper-stimulated, with many sources of information coming simultaneously--like multiple TVs and radios at once. At times it's bluesy, exuberant, angry, grungy, kick-ass, melancholy. I don't find it tongue-in-cheek as some seem to. I think it's a sincere effort by an artist of immense range who is willing to take risks. For me it works. There is an emotional coherence, and ultimately has the sense of journey that all of Pat Metheny's work does. By the end I feel I've been taken places I wouldn't have found on my own.

As the title states, Zero Tolerance For Silence! by Jon Remy (DFW, TX USA) 5 Stars
December 11, 2008
What an EXCELLENT album! Unfortunately, as the title implies, Zero Tolerance For Silence is a conceptual album of just that--zero tolerance for silence, and it is creatively reflected in this album. It may be a cacophony of notes and tones, but Pat Metheny, as well as all his supporting musicians, are, indeed, musical geniuses. I, too, am musically trained, and I find this album to be what it is, experimental, just as Miles Davis was experimental on Bitches Brew, or perhaps much of Weather Report's material. This is just another Pat Metheny jewel in my collection.

| Orchestrion
by Pat Metheny
Grammy Award-winning composer-guitarist Pat Metheny s Orchestrion may turn out to be his most talked-about, argued-over undertaking. It s already his most adventurous. With Orchestrion, Metheny redefines the concept of the solo album. He is indeed the only live musician on this recording, but it s the opposite of, say, his 2003 One Quiet Night, in which Metheny hunkered down in his home studio to explore all the musical possibilities of one new guitar. Here he works with an extraordinary set-up...
