I am a big fan of this duo and I had no idea they even
played live but they do. At this
festival they were joined by a drummer (Armin) and this allowed the band to
explore a more space rock type trip. The CD is about 40mins long and 5 tracks,
all of new material, starting off with Schein (14mins). This is a very spacey slow growing track with
some words spoken to the audience but drifting synths and some simple spacey
guitar before the synths become more complex and layered and then the drums kick
in about five minutes and quite dominates the sound mix. Very dreamy guitar and
around 10mins a Theremin like sound comes in nd out for a while as thy search
for it to all come together. They appear to almost stop the track and the drums
stop and then start again for a few mins. Om Namah, has a more ominous feeling
to it to start but at 4 ½ mins a heavy guitar kicks in and this briefly changes
the vide and dynamic a lot. Towards the end there is a spoken word sample and
then the guitar and synths get quite intense. Weinende Eidechjen starts slowly
with some layers of synths and drums and a quite simple guitar line. At about 6 mins the track picks up but drops
off again after only 1 mins and the main guitar line continues. Projectionen is
a quite short track unde 5mins and very synth driven with no drums. Henriette
Mutterkorn is the last track. This one has a groovy bass line and more driving
drums. The synths are still quite floating and drifting. The guitar reminds me
a bit of Pink Floyd at times. Great way to end the show. I really wish there was a cool movie or
visuals to accompany this release. Was it filmed??? Nice release. I might have to try to get the
vinyl!
This is a site where I post reviews of CDs, DVDs, LPs, and concerts. I have been writing music reviews on and off since 1984. I ran a heavy metal fanzine from 1984-1988 called Metal Madness and have been a staff writer for Aural Innovations for many years. I have also contributed to Chrohinga Well (RIP), Bad Acid (RIP), Lowcut (RIP), Roadburn and a number of other zines as well. I recently moved to Portugal so please request the new address and do not send any music to Denmark anymore. Tak..
