***A new LP from Smegma (now in their 52nd year!)—featuring Ju Suk Reet Meate, Oblivia, Ace Farren Ford, Dennis Duck, Aaron Dilloway, John Wiese, Tom Recchion, Rick Potts and more. The record celebrates the inevitable portions of joyous cacophony from the modern era of the group (circa 2008 - 2024), while also including a piece dating clear back to November 1973, from the day the group landed on the name Smegma. Incorporating imagery from their 2023 induction to the Oregon Music Hall of Fame and a cover drawing from Ju Suk, the record also features a variety of collages from Ace (who unfortunately passed away in December 2023), throughout the layout itself but also with the inclusion of a unique xerox of collage work in each copy of the record.

***These American legends of outsider avant-garde need little introduction. Since becoming core members of the Los Angeles Free Music Society five decades ago, they have retained their focus, determination and unmatched originality, influencing generations and never seizing to advance further avenues of progress. Mutant Stomps is a result of Smegma’s living room recording sessions at their pink house in Portland. All tracks were produced 2012–2013, with one dating back to 1975 for good measure. The line-up of Dennis Duck, Ace Farren Ford, Rock and Roll Jackie, Ju Suk Reet Meate, Madellyn Villano, John Wiese and Donkey Flybye deliver a consistently amorphous, surreal-concrète sound.

***In 1987, G.R.O.S.S. released Morass on cassette—one studio side, one live side. The former was re-released as bonus material on Harbinger Sound's CD reissue of Nattering Naybobs. Here is the latter, plus 15 minutes of extra astounding unreleased live recordings from 1985-87 for your trouble. "Free jazz firepower is to the fore," observes our comrades at Volcanic Tongue, "With Ayler-ized horns and Borbetomagus-scale form destruction battling against toy orchestras, power-punking loops, syrupy sludge-jams, garage band instrumentals and usurped avant garde modes. One of Smegma's wildest sides and some of the most fucked-up art-aggro to escape the gravity of the LAFMS." As John Hodgman would say, "You're welcome." Full color artwork and labels.
