Norway\u2019s Hedvig Mollestad Trio does precisely that on its sixth album. Recorded live in the studio, Smells Funny is a metal-jazz excursion that often tips into the Sonny Sharrock zone, fueled by Ellen Brekken\u2019s rumbling bass, Ivar Loe Bj\u00f8rnstad\u2019s insistent pulse and Mollestad\u2019s hellacious chops and fertile imagination&#8230; When Frank Zappa famously said, \u201cJazz is not dead, it just smells funny,\u201d he was referring to a moldering of the music. The Hedvig Mollestad Trio aims at providing an antidote with this audacious outing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/hedvigmollestadtrio.bandcamp.com\/\">Bandcamp<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;When a power trio can share the stage comfortably with the likes of John McLaughlin and Black Sabbath, you know two things: They rock hard, yet provide enough harmonic content and improvisational daring to make it interesting.
