I've had Magma's Attahk for about five years, but hadn't listened to it for a long time.  Recently, while in Mexico, I found myself listening to the album a lot again.  I love it.  I liked it, but I appreciate it much more than I once did. The final three tracks, Side 2, "Maahnt", "Dondaï", and "Nono", in particular I played again and again. After the long respite, it was like hearing it almost for the first time.  Great album.

Its so much fun. A partyalbum. I'm gonna spin it tomorrow. I feel like voting for the silly, burping song.

Maahnt is a gas (the burps are brilliant ;)).  I could go for Dondai, Nono, or Maahnt.

It's really interesting as  a sort of transitional Magma album that shows adaptation to the the musical fashions of the day (without being a really fashionable album). I think it's a very vibrant album.

Voted Nono but I've always loved this song. Zeuhl-disco at it's finest, "Liriik Necronomicus Kanht":

The Last Seven Minutes wins.

This was actually my first Magma album and it blew me away from the very start.

The Last Seven Minutes.

I don't love this album, but I should probably listen to it a bit more.

Pretty much agree with Pat.
 
I'd probably give this about 3.5...some moments are great, others are less so. I'll vote for The Last Seven Minutes which is one of my favorite Magma songs. Nono is also top notch as is Liriïk Necronomicus Kanht, and Maahnt.

Very cool album, but i wish Blasquiz sung more on it instead of Vander when he does his silly vocal parts. Would have made it a classic album

The last Seven Minutes is great, but my favorite is Lirik Necronomicus Kanht

This took me ca. 20 seconds:

Here's Udu Wudu for $6,95,
and a lot more Magma at normal CD-prices here (Kobaïa's a double so its quite cheap)

Easy to find even rare CD's cheap, actually. Just don't use the links at PA or RYM.
