4 stars This is a great example of early Krautrock. We have a great drummer who likes to play random patterns and a lead guitarist who at times sounds like Hendrix. Yes these guys can play and they love to just jam and jam.

"Stone In" is such an incredible song of amazing guitar melodies and great drumming. The drummer keeps shouting out things as the guitarist lets it absolutely rip. "Girl Call" opens with experimental sounds as drums and Hendrix-like scorching guitar follows. "Next Time See You At The Dalai Lhama" features a lot of really good drumming as a mesmerizing and hypnotic rhythm is created. The title track may be the hardest to get into as there is no melody, just a lot of weird noises. There is some screaming guitar 6 minutes in. "Der Lsd / Marsch" starts off slowly with not a lot going on until around the 4 minute mark when the drums and guitar start to build. Some nice guitar 5 minutes in that are followed up with some filthy solos. Nice.

This is a must have for all you Krautrock fans. 4 stars.
