All Heaven Broke Loose is the third album by Bill Bruford's Earthworks, featuring Django Bates, Iain Ballamy and Tim Harries. It was released on EG Records in 1991. It was co-produced by experimental guitarist David Torn, with whom Bruford had played extensively in the 1980s

The authors of The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings called Bates' contribution to "Candles Still Flicker in Romania's Dark" "exceptional by any standard."[4]

Josef Woodard of Entertainment Weekly called the album "evocative," and wrote: "Earthworks play up their jazz associations, but the lack of either traditional song structures or extended solos suggests a careful balance of tradition and mischief... Heard from start to finish, the album tells an engaging, abstract story, steeped in the spirit of jazz — if not the letter." - Wikipedia
