Does anyone know anything about this Krautrock band and their music?

The closest I've found to a description of the music is "Musically itīs prog-rock with a psychedelic touch. Fine surrealistic black/white cover. All own compositions and very well done!"

I've often been tempted to buy the CD of their 1974 s/t album, after seeing it fetch such a high price on eBay - is the music that good (and what is it like!) - or is it just scarcity value (I understand only 200 copies were pressed)?

 

 

 

 

 

Anyone got an mp3?

If I remember well , this got released on cd by  Ohrwalsh records in the mid-90's but only 1000 copies!

I'll read up on it tonight and get back to you about Dag-Erik Asbjornssen's usually correct advices.

OK , I checked!

These guys were from a border town close to Demmark! Made their sole album in their own garage in 74 , which explains the relatively poor sound.

Asbjornssen describes the music as boring hard garage rock that fails to rattle his enthusiasm.

Line up: singer, two guitarist, bass drums.
Ohrwalsh record 93!
