MINOTAURUS were an obscure 70's band from Germany, who recorded 2 albums with only
one ever being released "Fly Away". Inspired by the story of the Mintaurus living in King
Minos' Labyrinth on Crete this 6 piece band deliver an album full of organ roaring
progressive rock. This album although essentially a symphonic mindmelt does also blend in
psych and space dimensions into their sound. Their overall sound is quite rich with a good
chunk of mellotron and deep bass lines. Vocals (Peter Scheu) are sung in English and fit the
music quite well. Instrumentally this band were amazing with inspiring and pompous
keyboard leads, mellotron atmospheres , great guitar , bass and drum interplay. Overall
sound carries allusions to NOVALIS, MARILLION and ELOY.
