Smekkleysa SM/Bad Taste SM, was established in Iceland in 1986, by a group of young artists and musicians, who had been active since the Icelandic punk explosion in the early eighties. Part of their world domination or death manifesto, was to create a pop band with The Sugarcubes which in turn became the backbone for Smekkleysa SMs activities over the next few years.



The company has since grown from being an experimental cultural organization into a fully active record company. It has developed and worked with some of Icelands most interesting artists, e.g. The Sugarcubes, Björk, Sigur Rós, múm, Mínus, Ghostigital, Curver, Ske, slowblow, Kimono and Jan Mayen.



More recently Smekkleysa SM opened its first shop in Iceland alongside their online shop www.smekkleysa.net The shop is a museum at the same time and hosts the traveling exhibition, Lobster or Fame two decades of Bad Taste. This is the only existing exhibition about Icelandic popular culture and includes historic moments in the culture that the Sugarcubes and the movement of Icelandic artists around them initiated 20 years ago.



We have opened our new site and shop at www.smekkleysa.net
