Now five albums into the Damaged Bug solo project, John Dwyer brings the pounding krautish grooves you expect, as well as some things you don’t: gothy, baritone, ballads a la Roxy Music or John Cale; 70s-fusion jazz-influenced improvisations, and Afro-beat rhythms. Damaged Bug has always been more open-ended than even the wide-ranging Ohsees, and it’s a treat to see an artist like Dwyer following his own inclinations, wherever they might lead, and often into illuminating new territory . . .
