KOMMISSAR HJULER & MAMA BAER - Amerikanische Poesie und Alkoholismus

"180 Gram Edition of 500. Officer Hjuler of the Flensburg police, and his wife Frau Baer give an earsplitting lecture on sound poetry on the A side and lull us into a state of American Alcoholism on the flip. This German duo has over 200 releases on their own lathe cut/cdr imprint and is quickly racking up international honors, album credits and acclaim. This is their largest LP release to date.\r\nOne side is Kommissar Hjuler und Frau : ONCE AGAIN concrete poetry (or was it the song?) a collage of US-american sound poetry, collected by Jean-Francois Bory, presented by Kommissar Hjuler und Frau.\r\n"One side is Mama Baer : Alcoholisme - brut field recordings with mama baers voice and treatment. \r\n"Amerikanische Poesie... is the duo at their most hilariously alienating and crudely sophisticated." -David Keenan in WIRE\r\n"this is, naturally, a batshit-crazy affair, with the two absolutely howling over the purported _¢‚Ǩ_ìlegacy_¢‚Ǩ¬ù materials (through a fender princeton from the sound of things) - its both terrifying and oddly inspiring (which sums up most of what makes this stuff so ... engaging)." - Keith Fullerton Whitman
