Roddus Album Of The Day
Krautrock! alive and well in London circa. 1996. Well not exactly Rock so to speak, more a combination of Suicide, Kraftwork, Faust and Neu! with the almost deadpan female vocals sung sometimes in what sounds like French and some German. Some of this album wouldn't have sounded out of place in the post punk of 1980s UK and it is quite catchy in places. "Percolator" is the first real catchy number and I dig the uptempo base lines."Olv 26" with the heavy synthesiser is right there in Suicide(the Band) territory and "The Noise Of Carpet" is just brilliant post pop."Motoroller Scalatron" is where Faust really comes into the picture. A mainly enjoyable album which survived the whole day on the ipod but as is the case with many releases in the CD age, goes on a bit too long and some of the tracks drone a bit. My rating 3/5
