Asmodeus: Book of Angels Volume 7 is an album by Marc Ribot performing compositions from John Zorn's second Masada book, The Book of Angels.
The Allmusic review by awarded the album 4½ stars stating "On this thrilling, amped-up outing, six-string wizard Marc Ribot plays the compositions of John Zorn with beautiful intensity... The ghosts of Jimi Hendrix and Sonny Sharrock hover in Ribot's playing here: this is ensemble avant-rock made for and by the courageous".
Writing for All About Jazz, Troy Collins commented "Asmodeus: The Book of Angels, Volume 7 is the most visceral exploration of the Masada songbook yet... A high water mark in a developing series, Asmodeus sets the bar higher for future interpretations of this rich body of work".
