Liner notes on Metabolist:
"Formed in January '77, Metabolist first came
to my attention via a piece in Enovations. This occasionally interesting
periodical unfortunately masquerades as a fanclub journal for
Eno. The sooner it turns into a source of information for exploratory
musicians, the better. Wisely, Metabolist have their own label,
Drömm records, & claim to have been influenced by Can,
Gong & Magma. I also see connections with This Heat &
Public Image Ltd. There's an increasingly interesting use of noise
& chaos in dance music these days. This snappy item was recorded
at their studio in Charing Cross Road & features Simon Millward
bs, Mark Rowlatt drs, Malcolm Lane gtr, & the recently departed
Anton Loach synth."
