Faust 1971

"It’s impossible to describe in detail what this album really is about, except for that most of it is obscure and experimental Psych/RIO/Kraut at it’s most bizarre. At the barely 35-minute playing time, Faust manages to create a unique yet horrific soundscape that you’ll definitely remember; It’s very likely that marijuana is an involved reason for this. It features weird vocals, psychedelic and experimental jam’s and lot’s of unpredictable twists in the music. The album has a gross and uncomfortable style to it, and it’s heavily dominated by (mostly electronic) sound effects, and is at times a very frustrating listen. “Why Don’t You Eat Carrots” in particular is downright disturbing at times, yet probably the most structured track on the album. The rest of the album is less structured, and much of it seems improvised at times except for a few vocal parts with some really nonsense lyrics.

As many others have mentioned, this album has a very "cut'n'pace" style to, but it generally works well though it surely is an acquired taste, and definitely NOT for the faint of heart. It’s a very rewarding album if you are into Krautrock’s more experimental groups, it definitely an album to remember. No matter if you like it or not; it will definitely scar itself into your mind."
