A Wonderful Noise

"I first got into Smegma by finding a vinyl edition of Ism in the record bins at a place downtown. It had purple vinyl and I had heard of them before. I bought the album but did not play it for over a year. About a year ago I listened to the album. The album was out of this world! It was filled with crazy noises and sounds, moans and groans and all sorts of maniacal tape loops. The METBPTIR of Smegma is a great followup. "Ow!" is a sixteen minute descent into madness, which makes my 30 minute commute turn into a head trip lasting the entire span. The music here is not music, but a wonderful noise. Buy this one with Ism, if you have neither!"
