Not sure if these have been mentioned round these parts before but I feel compelled to shout of the virtue of this s/t album by Ziguri.
I sniffed a promo earlier and have been atomised by its awesomeness. The blurb says stuff like...
"Ziguri is a project featuring Krautrock legends Gunter Schickert, Udo Erdenreich & Deiter Kolsch...."
goes on to say that they were active between 1987 - 1997 but now, finally, unleash their debut album after reforming in 2011. And, I can tell you, it's worth the wait. 5 tracks of total bass pounding, trance like, motorik grooves from a Kraut/Psyche power trio with ehcoplexy, dream like guitar embellishing the top end and accompanied by almost surreal, Gong-like vocal moments. It's a rare thing these days to press "play" again as soon as it's finished but I must have it again!
It really is a fantastic 37 minutes of your time I assure you. I bet they are hypnotic live as well!
Sez it's out end of July. It really is rather splendid!
