"Smegma delivers three pieces, two from 2008-2009 and one from 1975, which I think is funny, since they all could have been from this year or from 1975: the difference is quite small. Over those many years Smegma stayed firm to their roots of free improvisation within a rock context, well more or less that is. They play around with the notions of rock but combined with the experiments as executed by musique concrete composers. Its what they have been doing for the last thirty-five years and they do a great job, still. Especially 'Blues For M.' from 1974 is a great subdued piece of music.
One track on the side by Kommissar Hjuler & Mama Bär, recorded (live?) this year in Flensburg and it seems they are inspired by Smegma. Also from the world of 'rock' music, with guitars, bass and 'vocals', this is more a lo-fi rock piece from the noise end than from the musique concrete end of things. Bits of feedback scream at the back end of thing and this piece stabs right into your brain. Nice perhaps, but a bit long. I can imagine this in a concert situation having much more impact. A slightly different side of their work (as far as I know it)." (label info)
