Review by DamoXt7942
SPECIAL COLLABORATOR
1 stars Laugh out loudly, and get afraid this rough and tough creation might be produced under Michel's permission.

As it is said, this is only a compilation of unreleased demo tracks I imagine. Cheap bluesy guitar twists playfully and cheesy voices of Michel should elbow us away from the fantastic Krautrock world. At least for me, this stuff sounds not like a serious rock production but a tiny cynical adventure of drunken musicians done in a karaoke bar.

From the first track "Green Winter Of Revolvers" Michel's joke has exploded fuzzily ... what a cynicism against every rock fan. Simply an anarchist meh. And his horror story comes to the peak upon the fifth short track "Silkskin Dawn", with poor karaoke voices of a poor singer based upon non-challenging guitar footprints. What a terrible fantasy the last dark noise one "Burning The Vibes" is ... Not burning at all but only a musical earthquake. And finally an unfairy tale has been completed.

But nope, I love this funky bomb, especially as a joke compilation. Far from something recommended for every Krautrock freak and for every progressive rock fan though.
