Can you guys recommend me some free jazz albums where they just go crazy with their instruments BUT they still sound good and, preferably, have a full band or even orchestra or something? So it's not just one guy playing sax, I want there to be like multiple sax and guitar and piano and shit just spazzing out and sounding awesome. Pic related is the kind of thing I'm looking for.

Black Unity and Karma by Pharaoh Sanders both incredible. And interesting popfact Sun Ra gave him that name.

Ornette Coleman's Free Jazz of course

You'll like this album, the first track features some intense screeching overblown sax which is absolutely incredible. It's a huge, primarily wind band so it's got a really dense sound to it.
Check out Fire! Orchestra's albums "Enter" and "Exit!", also listen to Black Saint by Mingus if you haven't already, it's not quite as chaotic as the stuff I've mentioned but it's probably in the area you're after.
Take a look at Pharoah Sanders as well, the arrangements aren't as big but he goes mad on sax a lot. The opening to this track is phenomenal:
