Barbed Wire Maggots - Borbetomagus (1983)


I feel like this one gets a fair amount of attention, but not enough people talk about Zurich. The performances are incredible and the clarity of the recording really lets them shine. I think Barbed Wire Maggots gets a bit too bogged down in the murky production, honestly.

It's mainly because it's on Scaruffi jazz list. He and other supporters of the album probably consider the murky production a plus. Very Happy

I mean I do get the appeal of the murk so I can't actually be mad about people being into what it does for Barbed Wire Maggots, they just got so much good stuff though. Like Hugh Davies' presence on Work On What Has Been Spoiled and the dry clanging and metal spring stretching sort of sounds he gets out of his crazy instruments playing off of what Borbetomagus are doing and filtered thru the murkier production does something to my brain that I can't explain but it makes it a personal favorite.

I got introduced to them by reading this thing by Keith Fullerton Whitman, a write up for his mailorder site about the 7 inch Coelacanth. It helped that it was on sale for an insane price too, which the internet archive machine has captured

I don't have that 7 inch with me here and there aren't any rips of it online. I might just buy it again off of discogs. It's been a while since I heard it but it is really amazing.

So yeah all I really want to say is that Borbetomagus are awesome.
