The 10th album from this band from Germany.
The band was now a duo with a lineup of bass, guitars, keyboards, synths and electronics.
Two guests added drums, percussion and cello.
The album is the follow up to the vocals and full band album Cyclone from 1979. An album hated by the fans and critics. Still is.
So Edgar Froese got the message and vocalist was ejected from the band. Wisely so, too.
There are still some organic music left here. Guitar solos and some cello, just to mention the most important stuff here.
This album is forty minutes long and has got three pieces of music. The opening eighteen minutes long title track is quite majestic and epic. It has, as the rest of the album, a good blend of electronica and some more organic stuff like for example the guitar solos and the cello. It is a good title track and the best piece of music on this album.
The two others are a bit shorter but still good pieces of music.
If any albums will convert me to become a fan of this band and genre, this is the type of album. It is indeed a good album and one worth checking out.
