For clarification's sake, it should be pointed out that the lineup behind the 6-lp Kluster release on Qbico is NOT Schnitzler, Roedelius, and Moebius, but Schnitzler, Freudigmann, and Seidel. Yes, it is molten-lava-like early Krautrock, but no one from Cluster appears on it! Personally, I wish it had been released under the name of "Eruption", which is what Qbico gave to other releases from the same line-up.
BTW, there is another 8-lp Kluster release from Vinyl-On-Demand. I haven't heard it, but assume it is also from this later "kluster" lineup, without Moebius and Roedelius.
As for Liliental, I believe there is an Unsung review for it, though I seem to remember it wasn't entirely favorable. In contrast, I consider it to be brilliant, though you probably need a high tolerance for quirkiness to get into it. In short, it is much closer to Moebius and Plank than to early Kluster/Cluster.
