I haven't read everything, folks, but I've realized these days that my approach to the site has totally changed. Once, due to having more free time and fewer new reviews daily, I wouldn't have missed this page. Instead, fest pointed it out to me on one of my comments two days ago. I've noticed that now, for me, this site, except for rare cases, feels like a monologue. I don’t comment anymore because I don’t read reviews of groups I don’t know. The fundamental function of the site was precisely to spark curiosity and introduce new groups. It used to be that way for me; I discovered new groups thanks to deb. Not anymore. Apart from a few reviewers with whom I share tastes, the rest goes unnoticed for me. And it’s a shame. I’ll conclude by clarifying that this is not a criticism of the site's direction; it’s more of a self-critique.

Damn, I wanted to ask you, Cosmo, if Wegmuller was known over there. And what about Sergius Golowin? It seems he was a former Swiss parliamentarian from the '60s with a somewhat too libertarian stance regarding drugs. @fest: I had missed the name, now I'm reading it and downloading it. Thanks for the tip!

Damn, ten years ago I heard it because of a friend of mine who played black metal (the band was called Metraton, if by chance Urtis you’re a fan of the genre) and I must say that even though I didn’t like it, I liked it more than Immortal, Mortiis, Marduk, and the rest. If I’m not mistaken, they had issues over the album cover photo, since that church was a national heritage site in Norway and if I’m not mistaken they were investigated. I don’t know, I read it briefly in "Lord of Chaos," that somewhat sensationalist English book about the black metal scene in the '90s.

Look, my comment wasn't meant to be offensive, far from it. Anyway, I sent "a bit" of samples just to please.

The Cosmic are perhaps among my favorites among the discoveries made thanks to krautrocksampler. It's basically space rock à la Hawkwind, German style. That is, the keyboards are the eerie kind like Schulze, but the structure is a nice psychedelic rock, dedicated to various noise suites. Definitely one of the more canonical in the field. I don't know which album to recommend, the first is quite a heavy brick, Galactic Supermarket is good too, Planet Sit In is weirder, full of little snippets of tracks. Download and then see for yourself. I will look for Seven Up as soon as I digest the mountain of stuff I have.

@odra: if you scroll through my recs, you'll see that, except for rare cases, I've always included samples. Lately, due to the heat and work, I haven't managed it, but today I'll put some up. Oh, I downloaded Golowin's album "lord krishna von goloka" last night and my synapses are already shaking...

Thank you, folks, for the compliments. Upon rereading, I realized it has a bit of a Ron Hubbard vibe; I was half-drunk yesterday afternoon when I wrote it, and some terms are overly academic, but the scope of this record is massive. As I mentioned to Lewis elsewhere, the rating for the album varies from -1 to 7 depending on my mood, so varied it can be annoying. I must say that listening with headphones is highly recommended; it makes the overall sound much clearer. @lewis: I can’t remember which track on the second CD has a piano riff that echoes the theme of "Love Story," and I’m not sure if that's brilliant or unsettling. @fest: The band is Ashra Tempel + Wegmüller + Westrupp + two of Wallenstein, if I’m not mistaken. I have the same double edition in digipack, but I know there's an edition with a booklet and the 22 major arcana made by the good Walter. If you want a laugh, check out the photo in Westrupp's booklet.

I don't want to say that old sounds are therefore less interesting. Musically speaking, I was born old, so it was the first kraut group that I liked right away. However, I understand that those who didn't grow up on a diet of Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin, like my friend, may have a bit of difficulty connecting with the Duul. And I don't want to claim that they are a hard rock band, mind you. But they are more so than Faust, Guru Guru, and Can, for instance. Regarding reissues, almost all these groups have been reissued by Spalax, especially the lesser-known ones, about ten years ago. It’s just that here, the Spalax releases are all imports, making them less available. I have the first two Faust albums from Collectible Records on a single CD, released two or three years ago. I also saw the second one at the Fnac in Turin in a standalone digipack. The Cosmic Jokers are still Spalax; I don't remember about Ash Ra, but the only amazing reissue I've seen was in Japan from Captain Trip Records, a triple box set featuring the cover of the first album. Exact reproductions of the opening vinyls and so on. The Amon seem to be from Repertoire, but I don't know if all of them are. And then some editions are digipack while others are jewel cases. I have the Phallus video taken from the DVD, not bad. On TuTubi, there are a couple of extra songs like "Rattlesnake Plumcake," a bonus track from Yeti.
