The 14th album from this band from Germany.
The band was a quartet with a lineup of dobro, glockenspiel, percussion, drums, bass, guitars, organ, piano, electric piano, harmonium, synths, samples, programming and vocals.
A guest added flute and saxophone.
The band returned again after the rather good Encoded album from the year before. I reviewed it some time ago and I pretty much liked it.
This band has been operating somewhere between krautrock and space rock on their albums. There has been a lot of avant-garde pieces of music on their albums too. Other pieces of music has been more easy accessible.
This seventy-two minutes long album is an album where ambient music, cinematic rock and krautrock is being explored.
The music is pretty avant-garde throughout without being too excessive avant-garde. The music is also mostly dreamy and laidback.
There are some vocals here but most of the music is instrumental and mostly driven by a combination of guitars, synths and computers.
One of the track has some good saxophones too.
The music is a mix of good and decent pieces of music.
This is not one of their finest albums. Nevertheless, this is an album worth checking out.
2.5 points
