The 22nd album from this band from Germany.
The band was a duo, Edgar Froese and Cristoph Franke, with a lineup of percussion, guitars, synths, computers and drum machine.
This album was orginally recorded in 1973 and then remixed in 1984 before it was released two years later.
I have learned to understand some of their music after a year of reviewing their albums. Ten or so reviews. Their genre, progressive electronica, is not a genre I really enjoy, though. But they are a big name in the progressive rock genre.... hence these reviews.
This album is a bit more in the cinamatic rock genre than their earlier stuff. This album was written in 1973 but it does not really sit that well with their earlier albums. Hence, I think this album has been a bit more than remixed. Some of their 1980s approach to music has been incorporated into the music.
The title track has some good guitars and a lot more than just electronica. It is a good twenty minutes long track and more than half of this album. An album clocking in at almost forty minutes.
The rest of the album is not of the same standard. Nevertheless, the quality is somewhere between decent and good. This is one of their better albums.
2.5 points
