Rezension
There's something perversely fabulous about the thought of this warped masterwork wandering into 60,000 unsuspecting British homes in 1973. Faust's second-and-a-half album hit the shops to celebrate their signing to the nascent Virgin Records, who were looking to take advantage of the zeitgeist for German music at that time. Undeterred by the fact the band's unwillingness to engage with the commercial landscape had seen them dropped from Polydor, Branson and co cooked up a suitably spectacular marketing strategy, selling the LP for 49p, the bargain price of a single. Shoppers flocked in their thousands to grab a copy, raced home and then spent the next forty five minutes checking their tracking, banging the speakers and blowing the needle, all to no avail. Do not adjust your set - This is Faust."Mit jedem Ton dieses Albums beweisen Faust, dass sie vor allem begabte und absolut verrückte Musiker waren...Es fällt mir eigentlich nur ein einziges Album ein, mit dem man dieses wunderbare Album vergleichen kann: "Unlimited Edition" von Can." (Rudi Vogel/Krautrock Musikzirkus)
