Graaf are a better version of Genesis
All I like is prog related bands beginning late 60's/early 70's. Their music from 1968 - 83 has the composition and sound which will never be beaten. Perfect blend of jazz, classical, folk and rock.

The Swastika is also set at a different degree. f**k knows why Hitler used it to signify his Nazi regime. I guess everyone needs a cool symbol to identify with........
I love the Magma debut. Had to dig out the vinyl to look at it. Never paid attention to those signs. Gotta look for the Statue now. To me, it was just a mega-talon crushing cities and people - just like the imaginary power of the music. I’m glad to say that my first Magma LP was the live double - and it sounded like Satanic Jazz to my, very stoned, auditory perception. Glad I stuck with them, coz when I acquired Udu Wudu, De Futura solidified the purpose of my very existence.

Wurdah Itah and 1001 Degrees Centigrades are 5 star prog albums.

Really love all the other Magma seventies albums, but really haven´t yet get as much into Udu Wudu & Attahk as many Magma fans seems to. Have to listen them more.
