L take, bro propably thinks Zappa stopped at Joe's Garage II & III lmao
What makes Beefheart's music weirder than Zappa's is just the lore behind TMR, not the music itself. Zappa is precise, polished and highly decisive with his writing. There's musical intention all around.
In the late '60s, there was a cleavage: Zappa/Mothers of Invention spawned a fake weird music lineage, while Beefheart/Magic Band spawned a true weird music lineage. This band, like Primus before them, belongs to the Zappa/Mothers' fake weird music lineage.
