Space Explosion - Space Explosion (CD)
An amazingly excellent album that is in the top 20 krautrock efforts and a must have album! As it is it is the top 10 Kraut rock albums then if you love experimental rock this is in the top 20 albums. A must have purchase for every true krautrock fan!Â
The best way to describe this CD is to say it's like a krautrock orchestra. A bit similar to the Cosmic Couriers - 'Other Places' release. Quite an impressive line-up here. Mani Neumeier of GURU GURU on drums, Moebius of CLUSTER on synthesizer, Chris Karrer of AMON DUUL II on violin and sax, Jurgen Engler of DIE KRUPPS on guitar, Zappi Diermaier (percussion) and Jean Peron on vocals and trumpet. Last two musicians are from FAUST. 'Space Explosion' is one of those CD's that get better as it progresses. Which is to say the last three tracks are the best. The listener is pulled into another dimension during "Taub" and the band's namesake "Space Explosion". The final cut "Krakatau" lets you know exactly what this one-time side project is truly capable of. Definitely some brilliant moments present. May be a little to way-out there for some.
