This is the debut of Chris Franke, like its predecessor, Klaus Schulze of drums coming. As far as I counted, he has remained the longest on the side of Froese. So the decade.
And with its entry into the group also began the transformation of the sound. The good.
The inclined listener be warned: the (still) has nothing to do with the later, acting in the esoteric field Tangerine Dream, which came only a few years later ...
Here pronounced guitar, bass, drums and all sorts of electronics this time around is still done manually, played. Similar to the AshRaTempel this time. Or (also from Berlin coming) Agitation Free.
Not uninteresting, but just not what you expect. The inclined listener should still geared to the first album.
But those who know the group that already know :-)
