666

"666" is certainly one of my most favourite albums of all times and therefore it's hard to get objectivity. It is certainly not flawsless, but given the circumstances and the time when it was conceived, it must be highly valued as a pioneering conceptual music piece. Its mythical, mystical, religiously flavoured antique and its folksy East-Mediterranean psychedelia always send shiver down my spine. Centered around the beautiful music textures of "Seven Trumpets/Altamont/The Wedding of the Lamb", album develops a dark atmosphere, attaching the biblical apocalypse story to the current death of Hippie era at the turn of the decades 1960s-70s. Absolutely remarkable and highly recommended album!
