3 stars When first saw this cover, I though about it a lot. This is 1978 record, in these years, Alien movie was produced, with Alien himself designed by H. R. Giger, Switz (is he?) master of weird dreams. So when I looked to their eyes (on this cover), I saw his work here. But that's not necessarily true. I use just my imagination and deductive skills for that, because this way, it's more fun. And also I have to think about it.

Thinking about Zeuhl music is quite difficult. Instead of some people, I don't think that it's hard to listen to Magma albums. But what is hard is to think about them. This can be quite hard. Basically, this is mostly fast in pace jazz with almost choral-like singing. I maybe took wrong path, from newest to oldest ones. Just because I wanted to try it, do it same Zeuhl style, in other way. New point of view, perspective. I know that I can't compare much, but instead of K. A., this one is more repetitive, maybe like they starting to be out of ideas in these days. Of course, I'll edit this review later and see how wrong, or right I was.

Therefore, neutral rating 3(+), can be up to 4(+) in future.
